Dynamic covergence adjustment in augmented reality headsets

A tangible, non-transitory, computer-readable medium, comprising instructions for adjusting display of a plurality of virtual objects that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• generate a first virtual image for display via an augmented reality headset, wherein the first virtual image comprises a first virtual object at a first position and a second virtual object at a second position;
• determine a first lateral adjustment of the first virtual object from the first position to a third position based on an interpupillary distance of a user;
• determine a second lateral adjustment of the second virtual object from the second position to a fourth position based on the interpupillary distance, wherein the first lateral adjustment is different from the second lateral adjustment;
• and
• generate a second virtual image for display via the augmented reality headset, wherein the second virtual image comprises the first virtual object at the third position and the second virtual object at the fourth position.

A method for adjusting display of virtual imagery comprising:

• receiving input image data comprising a first virtual object and a second virtual object;
• generating a first virtual image for display via an augmented reality headset, wherein the first virtual image comprises the first virtual object at a first position and the second virtual object at a second position;
• determining a first lateral adjustment of the first virtual object from the first position to a third position based on an interpupillary distance of a user;
• determining a second lateral adjustment of the second virtual object from the second position to a fourth position based on the interpupillary distance, wherein the first lateral adjustment is different from the second lateral adjustment;
• and
• generating a second virtual image for display via the augmented reality headset, wherein the second virtual image comprises the first virtual object at the third position and the second virtual object at the fourth position.
