  • Publication number: 20240046544
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for efficient image reprojection in a virtual reality system. For example, one embodiment of an apparatus comprises: a sensor interface to collect motion data from one or more sensors during a virtual reality session; graphics circuitry to execute graphics program code to render an image frame during the virtual reality session; a processor to generate motion transform data using the motion data, the motion transform data specifying how the image frame is to be adjusted prior to display; a reprojection engine to perform an in-line reprojection of the frame using the motion transform data to generate a reprojected image frame; and display circuitry to display the reprojected frame.

  • Patent number: 11258921
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and/or methods may define a priority of image memory traffic based on image sensor protocol metadata. For example, a metadata identifier may identify image sensor protocol metadata corresponding to an image sensor physical layer and/or an image sensor link layer. Moreover, a prioritizer may define a priority of the image memory traffic based on the image sensor protocol metadata. The priority may be used to control client access to dedicated memory and/or to shared memory.
