Conservative and tiled rasterization using a modified triangle setup

Författare

Summary, in English

Several algorithms that use graphics hardware to accelerate processing require conservative rasterization in order to function correctly. Conservative rasterization stands for either overestimating or underestimating the size of the triangles. Overestimation is carried out by including all pixels that are at least partially overlapped by the triangle, whereas underestimation includes only the pixels that are fully inside the triangle. No or few algorithms for conservative rasterization have been described in the literature, and current hardware does not explicitly support it. Therefore, we present a simple algorithm, which requires only a small modification to the triangle set-up when edge functions are used. Furthermore, the same algorithm can be used for tiled rasterization, where all pixels in a tile (e.g., 8 × 8 pixels) are visited before moving to the next tile.
