Abstract
Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that generates a stereo view of a three-dimensional (3D) environment by rendering a first eye view and reusing pixels from the first eye view for a second eye view based on a disparity indicative characteristic (e.g., identifying regions of pixel difference/similarity in the views). For example, an example process may include rendering a first view for a first viewpoint (e.g., a left eye view) of a three-dimensional (3D) environment. The process may further include estimating differences between the first view and a second view for a second viewpoint (e.g., a right eye view) of the 3D environment. The process may further include rendering the second view for the second viewpoint based on the estimated differences.
