Abstract

Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that modify a video to enable replay of the video with a depth-based effect based on gaze of a user during capture or playback of the video. For example, an example process may include tracking a gaze direction during a capture or a playback of a video, wherein the video includes a sequence of frames including depictions of a three-dimensional (3D) environment, identifying a portion of the 3D environment depicted in the video based on the gaze direction, determining a depth of the identified portion of the 3D environment, and modifying the video to enable replay of the video with a depth-based effect based on the depth of the identified portion.
