dc.description.abstractLatency or lag in an interactive graphics system is the delay between user input and displayed output. We have found latency and the apparent bobbing and swimming of objects that it produces to be a serious problem for head-mounted display (HMD) and augmented reality applications. At UNC, we have been investigating a number of ways to reduce latency; we present two of these. Slats is an experimental rendering system for our Pixel-Planes 5 graphics machine guaranteeing a constant single NTSC field of latency. This guaranteed response is especially important for predictive tracking. Just-in-time pixels is an attempt to compensate for rendering latency by rendering the pixels in a scanned display based on their position in the scan.
dc.description.sponsorshipWe would like to give special thanks to Ron Azuma. Ron is responsible figure 9, and was a huge help in the creation of the Slats video. We would also like to thank Tony Apodaca and Pixar for access to RenderMan, which was used to create the old well JITP simulation. This project was funded in part by the National Science Foundation, NSF Grant Number MIP-9306208 and NSF Cooperative Agreement Number ASC 8920219, and by the Advanced Research Projects Agency, ARPA ISTO Order Number A410 and ARPA Contract DABT63-93-C-C048.
