Real-time user adaptive foveated rendering

A system, comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory;
• and
• computer-readable instructions embodied in the memory, the computer-readable instructions being configured to implement a graphics processing method when executed, the graphics processing method comprising:
• obtaining gaze tracking data representing a user's gaze with respect to one or more images presented to the user;
• determining one or more gaze tracking parameters from gaze tracking data, wherein the gaze tracking parameters include at least one gaze tracking error parameter or at least one gaze tracking state parameter;
• generating adjusted foveation data representing an adjusted size and/or shape of one or more regions of interest in one or more images to be subsequently presented to the user based on the one or more gaze tracking parameters;
• generating foveated image data representing one or more foveated images using the adjusted foveation data, wherein the one or more foveated images are characterized by level of detail within the one or more regions of interest and lower level of detail outside the one or more regions of interest;
• and
• presenting the one or more foveated images to the user.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable instructions embodied therein, the computer-readable instructions being configured to implement a graphics processing method when executed, the graphics processing method comprising:

• obtaining gaze tracking data representing a user's gaze with respect to one or more images presented to the user;
• determining one or more gaze tracking parameters from gaze tracking data, wherein the gaze tracking parameters include at least one gaze tracking error parameter or at least one gaze tracking state parameter;
• generating adjusted foveation data representing an adjusted size and/or shape of one or more regions of interest in one or more images to be subsequently presented to the user based on the one or more gaze tracking error parameters;
• generating foveated image data representing one or more foveated images using the adjusted foveation data, wherein the one or more foveated images are characterized by level of detail within the one or more regions of interest and lower level of detail outside the one or more regions of interest;
• and
• presenting the one or more foveated images to the user.
