1. A method of displaying augmented reality, comprising:

  • projecting light associated with a first frame of image data;

    receiving, at a first waveguide of a stack of waveguides, the projected light associated with the first frame of image data, the first waveguide comprising a first diffractive optical element;

    modifying the projected light associated with the first frame of image data;

    delivering the modified light to a user'"'"'s eye, wherein the modified light associated with the first frame of image data is perceived at a first depth plane;

    projecting light associated with a second frame of image data;

    receiving, at a second waveguide of the stack of waveguides, the projected light associated with the second frame of image data, the second waveguide comprising a second diffractive optical element;

    modifying the projected light associated with the second frame of image data; and

    delivering the modified light to the user'"'"'s eye, wherein the modified light associated with the second frame of image data is perceived at a second depth plane, wherein the first depth plane is different from the second depth plane, and wherein the first depth plane and the second depth plane are perceived simultaneously.
