Abstract: Techniques for efficiently generating and displaying light-field data are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for generating light-field data, the method comprising receiving input image data, synthesizing a first plurality of viewpoints based on the input image data, synthesizing a second plurality of viewpoints based on cached image data, combining the first and second plurality of viewpoints, yielding a plurality of blended viewpoints, displaying the plurality of blended viewpoints, and caching image data associated with the plurality of blended viewpoints.
