This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.
The submitFrame() method of the VRDisplay interface captures the current state of the VRLayer currently being presented and displays it on the VRDisplay.
Optionally a VRPose can be provided to describe the pose used to render the VRLayer contents, which can be used by the browser to manipulate the layer contents to reduce perceived latency. If no VRPose is provided, the last pose returned by VRDisplay.getPose() will be used to describe the pose.
Syntax
vrDisplayInstance.submitFrame(pose);
Parameters
- pose Optional
- A
VRPoseobject, intended for use by the browser to manipulate the layer contents and reduce perceived latency.
