Inventors:

- Tokyo, JP
Jun Murakawa - Foster City CA, US
Christopher Ho - Belmont CA, US

International Classification:

G06T 17/20
G06T 3/40

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and devices are disclosed for rendering computer graphics. In various embodiments, a displacement map is created for a plurality of surfaces and a tessellation process is initiated. It is determined that the tessellation density of a first set of surfaces and a second set of surfaces should be modified based on the displacement map. Based on the displacement map, a tessellation factor scale for each surface of the first set of surfaces is increased and a tessellation factor scale for each surface of the second set of surfaces is decreased, respectively.

US Classification:

345522

Abstract:

A method for processing graphics for a GPU program, translating instructions from a shading language into an intermediate language with a front end of a GPU compiler; translating the instructions from the intermediate language into a GPU object language with a back end of the GPU compiler; wherein the instructions in the shading language include instructions defining a layout of resources for the GPU program.
