A computer implemented method for warping virtual content includes generating warped virtual content by transforming source virtual content. The method also includes determining whether a memory location corresponding to an X, Y location of the warped virtual content in an output frame of reference is occupied by pre-existing virtual content. The method further includes storing the warped virtual content in the memory location if the memory location is not occupied. Moreover, the method includes comparing respective Z locations of the warped virtual content and the pre-existing virtual content to identify virtual content with a Z location closer to a viewing location if the memory location is occupied. The method also includes storing the warped virtual content in the memory location corresponding to the X, Y location if a Z location of warped virtual content is closer to the viewing location than a pre-existing Z location of pre-existing virtual content.
