Abstract
Examples are disclosed herein related to reducing binocular rivalry in a near-eye display. One example provides a head-mounted display device having a near-eye display system configured to output a first-eye image to a first eyebox and a second-eye image to a second eyebox. The head-mounted display device is configured to receive an input of a three-dimensional (3D) location of a pupil of a first eye and a 3D location of a pupil of a second eye relative to the near-eye display system, based upon the 3D location of the pupil of the first eye and of the second eye, determine a location at which the pupil of the first eye begins to exit the first eyebox, and attenuate a luminance of the second-eye image at a location in the second-eye image based upon the location at which the pupil of the first eye begins to exit the first eyebox.
