20 Claims

1. A method comprising:

obtaining multiple see-through image frames of an environment around an augmented reality (AR) device using multiple imaging sensors of the AR device;

generating a depth map based on the see-through image frames;

generating a three-dimensional (3D) representation of the environment based on the depth map;

projecting the 3D representation onto a curved surface;

mapping points of the projected 3D representation to multiple virtual view images; and

presenting the virtual view images on one or more displays of the AR device.
