(57) ABSTRACT A system, method, and computer program product are provided for shading
using a dynamic object-space grid. An object defined by triangle primitives in a three …

With ever‐increasing display resolution for wide field‐of‐view displays—such as head‐
mounted displays or 8k projectors—shading has become the major computational cost in …

We present a novel architecture for flexible control of shading rates in a GPU pipeline, and
demonstrate substantially reduced shading costs for various applications. We decouple …

Streaming high quality rendering for virtual reality applications requires minimizing
perceived latency. We introduce Shading Atlas Streaming (SAS), a novel object-space …

Due to complex shaders and high-resolution displays (particularly on mobile graphics
platforms), fragment shading often dominates the cost of rendering in games. To improve the …

We propose a powerful hardware architecture for pixel shading, which enables flexible
control of shading rates and automatic shading reuse between triangles in tessellated …

We present a technique that adaptively adjusts the shading rate during rendering based on
the scene content and motion. Our goal is to improve performance with no loss in perceived …

An architecture for pixel shading, enables flexible control of shading rates and automatic
shading reuse between triangles in tessellated primitives in some embodiments. The cost of …

GPUs are one of the most energy-consuming components for real-time rendering
applications, since a large number of fragment shading computations and memory accesses …
