Abstract

Approaches enable image content (e.g., still or video content) to be displayed in such a way that the image content will appear, to a viewer, to include portions with different locations in physical space, with the relative positioning of those portions being determined at least in part upon a current relative position and/or orientation of the viewer with respect to the device, as well as changes in that relative position and/or orientation. For example, image content can be grouped or otherwise contained or assigned to different planes, levels, or other such groupings of content. The planes of content can enable image content included within those planes to be displayed to provide a viewer with an appearance or view of the content that appears to be positioned and/or displayed in 3D space. As that viewing angle changes, the content can be re-rendered or otherwise updated to display the image content from a perspective that reflects the change in viewing angle.
