Viewing Browser Content from Extreme Angles with Partial Perspective Corrections

Abstract

Displays viewed from extreme angles become perceptually distorted due to perspective projections. Perspective correction has been discussed as a remedy, yet there are few general and practical implementations available to users. This work explores modern browser technology for realizing perspective correction in practice, and whether partial perspective corrections is feasible. Three prototypes are explored, two where the corrections are configured manually and one where the corrections are determined automatically through camera-based vantage point measurements. Browser transformations are used to perform perspective corrections to content in real-time.
