Abstract:
Techniques are described for stochastic rasterization. A graphics processing unit (GPU) may discard samples of bounding polygons that together indicate movement of one or more primitives before a pixel shader process the samples. The GPU may leverage a stencil buffer and stencil test for discarding of such samples.
