1. A method comprising:
- determining, by a computing device, a first distance between a first user and a display device, wherein a display area, of the display device, comprises a plurality of regions;
receiving, by the computing device, content for display via the display device, wherein the content comprises at least;
video content; and
prioritization data for one or more frames of the video content, wherein the prioritization data prioritizes at least one region, of the plurality of regions, with respect to at least one other region of the plurality of regions;
determining that a change in eye focus of the first user exceeds a second distance threshold within the display area of the display device;
determining, based at least in part on the first distance, the prioritization data, and the change in eye focus exceeding the second distance threshold, an image resource allocation for displaying an image within the display area; and
outputting, via the display device, the image for display within the display area in accordance with the determined image resource allocation.

Abstract
Methods and systems are described for determining an image resource allocation for displaying content within a display area. An image or data capture device associated with a display device may capture an image of a space associated with the user or capture data related to other objects in the space. The viewing distance between the user and the display area (e.g., the display device) may be monitored and processed to determine and/or adjust the image resource allocation for content displayed within the display area. User movement, including eye movement, may also be monitored and processed to determine and/or adjust the image resource allocation for content displayed within the display area.

8. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a computing device, content for display via a display device, wherein the content comprises at least; video content; and prioritization data for one or more frames of the video content, wherein the prioritization data prioritizes an image characteristic for at least one region with respect to at least one other region of a display area of the display device; receiving information indicating a first distance of a first user from the display area; determining a plurality of regions of the display area; determining that a change in eye focus of the first user exceeds a second distance threshold within the display area of the display device; determining, based at least in part on the first distance, the prioritization data, and the change in eye focus exceeding the second distance threshold, an image resource allocation for displaying an image within the display area; and outputting, via the display device and based on the determined image resource allocation, the image for display within the display area. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method comprising:
-
outputting, via a display device, content for display; determining, by a computing device, a plurality of regions of a display area of the display device; determining, based on a distance between a first user and the display device, a sequence of image characteristics for adjusting an allocation of image resources; determining a ranking associated with the plurality of regions based on an eye focus of the first user and at least a first image characteristic for displaying an image within the display area; determining, based at least in part on the ranking and the sequence of image characteristics, an image resource allocation for displaying the image within the display area; and outputting, via the display device, the image for display within the display area in accordance with the determined image resource allocation. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
