Abstract

Example methods and systems for adjusting sensor viewpoint to a virtual viewpoint are provided. An example method may involve receiving data from a first camera; receiving data from a second camera; transforming, from the first viewpoint to a virtual viewpoint within the device, frames in a first plurality of frames based on an offset from the first camera to the virtual viewpoint; determining, in a second plurality of frames, one or more features and a movement, relative to the second viewpoint, of the one or more features; and transforming, from the second viewpoint to the virtual viewpoint, the movement of the one or more features based on an offset from the second camera to the virtual viewpoint; adjusting the transformed frames of the virtual viewpoint by an amount that is proportional to the transformed movement; and providing for display the adjusted and transformed frames of the first plurality of frames.
