Abstract

In a method for representing a plurality of at least partially overlapping objects on a display device having a pixel matrix, wherein a distance value is associated with every object as a measure for a virtual distance to a viewer and the pixels of every object can be associated with an object region, a region priority value is associated with every object region. An object to be represented with a halo is subdivided into the object regions object core and the surrounding halo, the pixels of an object core being associated with a higher region priority value than the pixels of a halo. The pixels of an object without halo are associated with the object region ‘object surface’ with a lower region priority value than the pixels of a halo. In a preceding process step, the object region of the halo is initially treated and the object region of the object core is processed and displayed in a subsequent process step. A modified distance value is associated with every pixel being the sum of the original distance value multiplied by a region priority factor and the region priority value.
