Abstract
In some implementations, a method of synchronizing a content generation and delivery architecture to reduce the latency associated with image passthrough. The method includes: determining a temporal offset associated with the content generation and delivery architecture to reduce a photon-to-photon latency across the content generation and delivery architecture; obtaining a first reference rate associated with a portion of the content generation and delivery architecture; generating, via synchronization circuitry, a synchronization signal for the content generation and delivery architecture based at least in part on the first reference rate; and operating the content generation and delivery architecture according to the synchronization signal and the temporal offset.
