GENERATING A LOW-LATENCY TRANSPARENCY EFFECT
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for generating a transparency effect for a computing device, the method comprising:
- transmitting, to a camera, a synchronization signal associated with a refresh rate of a display;
determining a line of sight of a user relative to the display;
acquiring a first image based on the synchronization signal;
processing the first image based on the line of sight of the user to generate a first processed image;
compositing first visual information and the first processed image to generate a first composited image; and
displaying the first composited image on the display.

Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for generating a transparency effect for a computing device. The technique includes transmitting, to a camera, a synchronization signal associated with a refresh rate of a display. The technique further includes determining a line of sight of a user relative to the display, acquiring a first image based on the synchronization signal, and processing the first image based on the line of sight of the user to generate a first processed image. Finally, the technique includes compositing first visual information and the first processed image to generate a first composited image, and displaying the first composited image on the display.

12. A computing device, comprising:
-
a processor configured to; transmit, to a camera, a synchronization signal associated with a refresh rate of a display; determine a line of sight of a user relative to the display; process a first image based on the line of sight of the user to generate a first processed image; and composite first visual information and the first processed image to generate a first composited image; the camera, configured to acquire the first image based on the synchronization signal; and the display, configured to display the first composited image. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a processing unit, cause the processing unit to generate a transparency effect for a computing device, by performing the steps of:
-
transmitting, to a camera, a synchronization signal associated with a refresh rate of a display; determining a line of sight of a user relative to the display; acquiring a first image based on the synchronization signal; processing the first image based on the line of sight of the user to generate a first processed image; compositing first visual information and the first processed image to generate a first composited image; and displaying the first composited image on the display.
