Abstract
According to the invention, a system for presenting graphics on a display device is disclosed. The system may include an eye tracking device configured to determine a gaze point of a user on a display device. The system may also include a processing device configured to combine a quality map generated based on the gaze point of the user and another quality map generated based on factors independent of the gaze point of the user to generate a combined quality map. The processing device is further configured to cause a rendered image to be displayed on the display device and the quality of each area of the rendered image displayed on the display device is determined based, at least in part, upon the combined quality map.
Claims20
A system for presenting graphics on a display device, wherein the system comprises:
- an eye tracking device configured to determine a gaze point of a user on a display device;
- and
- a processing device configured to:
- combine a first, gaze point based, quality map generated based on the gaze point of the user and a second, image content based, quality map generated based on one or more image content based factors independent of the gaze point of the user to generate a combined quality map, and
- cause a rendered image to be displayed on the display device, wherein quality of each area of the rendered image displayed on the display device is determined based, at least in part, upon the combined quality map.
A method for presenting images on a display device, the method comprising:
- combining, by a processing device, a first, gaze point based, quality map generated based on a gaze point of a user on a display device and a second, image content based, quality map generated based on one or more image content based factors independent of the gaze point of the user to generate a combined quality map;
- and
- causing, by the processing device, a rendered image to be displayed on the display device, wherein quality of the rendered image displayed on the display device is determined based, at least in part, upon the combined quality map.
A non-transitory machine readable medium having instructions thereon for presenting images on a display device, the instructions executable by one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- combining a first, gaze point based, quality map generated based on a gaze point of a user on a display device and a second, image content based, quality map generated based on one or more image content based factors independent of the gaze point of the user to generate a combined quality map;
- and
- causing a rendered image to be displayed on the display device, wherein quality of the rendered image displayed on the display device is determined based, at least in part, upon the combined quality map.
