Abstract

A method for compositing display data at a remote device to form an image for display involves the remote device receiving (S62) elements of the image, where the image includes display data forming a background layer, display elements forming a foreground layers and an overlay data layer. The remote device receives (S63) sensor information indicating one or more of a position of an eye of a viewer, a direction of focus of the eye of the viewer, and/or a position of a display. It then determines (S64) movement of a line of sight between the eye of the viewer and the display, determines an estimate of a future position of the line of sight at a future time based on the determined movement of the line of sight, and determines (S65) an adjustment to be made to the image based on the future position of the line of sight. The display elements of the foreground layer are composited (S66) relative to the display data of the background layer according to the determined adjustment and the composited image is forwarded (S67) for display at the future time.
