'''Timewarp''' or '''Time warping''' is a technique in [[VR]] that warps the rendered image before sending it to the display to correct for the head movement occurred after the rendering.<ref name=ATW blog1">https://www.oculus.com/blog/asynchronous-timewarp/</ref> Timewarp can reduce [[latency]] and increase or maintain [[frame rate]]. Additionally, it can reduce [[judder]] caused missed frames (when frames take too long to render).<ref name="YT1">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvtEXMlQQtI</ref> This process takes the already rendered image, modify it with freshly collected positional information from your [[HMD]]'s sensors, then display it to your screen.
