Modifying rendered image data based on ambient light from a physical environment

A system comprising:

• a see-through display, wherein the see-through display permits ambient light from a physical environment through the see-through display;
• a sensor subsystem to sense a plurality of light superposition characteristic values associated with the ambient light from the physical environment, wherein the plurality of light superposition characteristic values quantifies the ambient light arriving at the see-through display;
• a correction values generator to determine a plurality of display correction values associated with the electronic device based on the plurality of light superposition characteristic values and predetermined display characteristics of the representation of the object;
• and
• a display pipeline to:
• obtain rendered image data that includes a representation of an object for display using the see-through display, and
• generate, from the rendered image data, display data for the see-through display in accordance with the plurality of display correction values in order to satisfy the predetermined display characteristics of the representation of the object within a performance threshold.

An electronic device comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a non-transitory memory;
• a see-through display;
• and
• one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the non-transitory memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
• obtaining rendered image data that includes a representation of an object for display using the see-through display, wherein the see-through display permits ambient light from a physical environment through the see-through display;
• sensing a plurality of light superposition characteristic values associated with the ambient light from the physical environment, wherein the plurality of light superposition characteristic values quantifies the ambient light arriving at the see-through display;
• determining a plurality of display correction values associated with the electronic device based on the plurality of light superposition characteristic values and predetermined display characteristics of the representation of the object;
• and
• generating, from the rendered image data, display data for the see-through display in accordance with the plurality of display correction values in order to satisfy the predetermined display characteristics of the representation of the object within a performance threshold.
