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, relationship pairs for image content capable of being displayed on a display screen can be determined. Based on the relationship pairs, a node hierarchy that includes position information for planes of content that include the image content can be determined. The position information can be to render a view of the image content based on the relative position, direction, and/or orientation between the viewer and device to provide a two- or three-dimensional representation of that image content that is appropriate for that viewing angle, giving the impression of a three-dimensional view or display even when the display is in two dimensions.
