The invention relates to the technical field of VR screen projection, and provides a VR display method of a 2D application and VR equipment, which are used for realizing immersive viewing of the 2D application. According to the method, the
left eye image and the right eye image are respectively created according to the width and the height of the eye buffer area, and
data sharing is performed on the image buffer data of the to-be-displayed 2D application, so that the
left eye image and the right eye image are rendered by a synthesizer in a cross-process mode, the data
copying process is reduced, the rendering display efficiency is improved, and the display effect is improved. Meanwhile, the
left eye image and the right eye image are ensured to be complete 2D application images; moreover, the display positions of the left-eye image and the right-eye image relative to the viewer are respectively calculated through the six-degree-of-freedom head
pose and the eye
interpupillary distance, so that the left-eye screen and the right-eye screen are rendered and displayed by using a single buffer area according to the corresponding display positions, and compared with double buffer areas, the rendering display efficiency is further improved, and the rendering display time
delay is reduced.
