An example of this extrapolation is shown below. We have a scene in which a held gun which is moving from right to left in frames 0 and 1 (generated 1/45th of a second apart), and we want to generate an extrapolated frame from that movement (1/90th of a second after frame 1). We detect the movement of the gun and generate a new frame which we display on behalf the application. | An example of this extrapolation is shown below.

When it comes to virtual reality, ATW and ASW are siblings and complement each other. Timewarp is great for accommodating head rotation. In fact, it's perfect for static images at a distance. For applications like 360 videos and features on the horizon, Spacewarp is unnecessary. Conversely, Spacewarp is pretty good for animated objects up close but not so great at tracking head rotation. | When it comes to virtual reality, ATW and ASW are siblings and complement each other.
