TL;DR

This work gives general methods for handling multiple data streams with di(cid:11)erent latency values associated with them in a working AR system and measures the latency di(cid:11)erences, time-stamp on-host, adjust the moment of sampling, and interpolate or extrapolate data streams.

Post-rendering 3D warping

482 Citations1997William R. Mark, Leonard McMillan +1 more

This paper uses McMillan and Bishop’s image warping algorithm to re-render, allowing it to compensate for viewpoint translation as well as rotation, and avoids occlusion-related artifacts by warping two different reference images and compositing the results.

Priority rendering with a virtual reality address recalculation pipeline

141 Citations1994Matthew Regan, Ronald Pose

An address recalculation pipeline is a graphics display controller specifically designed for use with head mounted virtual reality systems, it performs orientation viewport mapping after rendering which means the users head orientation does not need to be known accurately until less than a microsecond before the first pixel of an update frame is actually sent to the head mounted display device.

A frequency-domain analysis of head-motion prediction

106 Citations1995Ronald Azuma, Gary Bishop

The performance of two classes of head-motion predictors are characterized by analyzing them in the frequency domain, showing that even with perfect, noise-free inputs, the error in predicted position grows rapidly with increasing prediction intervals and input signal frequencies.
