1. A method comprising:

  • receiving a first pixel strip of first pixels of a first sub-frame image that is derived from a full two-dimensional (2D) format image, the first pixels having first pixel data;

    receiving a second pixel strip of second pixels of a second sub-frame image that is derived from the full 2D image, one or more of the first pixels corresponding to one or more of the second pixels in a three-dimensional (3D) image rendered based on the first and second sub-frame images, the corresponding one or more first and second pixels being displaced in location with respect to each other;

    inverting the second pixel strip into an inverted second pixel strip based on the displaced locations of the one or more first pixels with respect to their corresponding second pixels, the inverted second pixel strip including inverted second pixels having inverted second pixel data, wherein the inverting includes;

    determining a displacement direction of a second pixel with respect to a corresponding first pixel, wherein the second pixel includes second pixel data;

    determining a displacement distance of the second pixel with respect to the corresponding first pixel;

    determining, based on the determined first direction, a second direction that is opposite the first direction;

    determining, based on the determined displacement distance and second direction, an inverted second pixel of the inverted second pixel strip that is displaced with respect to the first pixel by the displacement distance in the second direction; and

    including the second pixel data in the inverted second pixel in response to determining that the inverted second pixel is displaced with respect to the first pixel by the displacement distance in the second direction; and

    rendering the 3D image to include a superimposed pixel strip that is based on the inverted second pixel strip and the first pixel strip.
