Abstract
Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that adjust image content to reduce motion sickness during an experience. For example, an example process may include determining a first zone and a second zone of a display, generating images of a three-dimensional (3D) environment, identifying image content of each of the images corresponding to the second zone of the display, and reducing at least one of contrast or spatial frequency of the image content of each of the images corresponding to the second zone of the display.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- at an electronic device having a processor:
- tracking a gaze of a user relative to a display;
- tracking a first zone and a second zone of the display based on the gaze;
- generating images of a three-dimensional (3D) environment based on the tracking of the first zone and the second zone;
- identifying image content of each of the images corresponding to the second zone of the display;
- and
- adjusting the image content of each of the images corresponding to the second zone of the display by adding elements at 3D positions that are anchored relative to vestibular cues of a user in a physical environment.
A device comprising:
- a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, wherein the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprises program instructions that, when executed on the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- tracking a gaze of a user relative to a display;
- tracking a first zone and a second zone of the display based on the gaze;
- generating images of a three-dimensional (3D) environment based on the tracking of the first zone and the second zone;
- identifying image content of each of the images corresponding to the second zone of the display;
- and
- adjusting the image content of each of the images corresponding to the second zone of the display by adding elements at 3D positions that are anchored relative to vestibular cues of a user in a physical environment.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing computer-executable program instructions on a computer to perform operations comprising:
- tracking a gaze of a user relative to a display;
- tracking a first zone and a second zone of the display based on the gaze;
- generating images of a three-dimensional (3D) environment based on the tracking of the first zone and the second zone;
- identifying image content of each of the images corresponding to the second zone of the display;
- and
- adjusting the image content of each of the images corresponding to the second zone of the display by adding elements at 3D positions that are anchored relative to vestibular cues of a user in a physical environment.
