Abstract
A near-eye display system includes display panel to display a near-eye lightfield frame comprising an array of elemental images and a lenslet array to present the integral lightfield frame to a user's eye. The system further includes a rendering component to generate an array of elemental images based at least in part on a sparse sampling of a source image to decrease an overlap of image data contained within each individual elemental of the array of elemental images. A method of operation of the near-eye display system includes generating an array of elemental images forming the integral lightfield frame based on a sparse sampling of the current viewpoint of the subject object to decrease an overlap of image data contained within each individual elemental image of the array.
