Abstract: Some implementations provide systems, devices, and methods for rendering a plurality of primitives of a frame, the plurality of primitives being divided into a plurality of batches of primitives and the frame being divided into a plurality of bins. For at least one batch of the plurality of batches the rendering includes, for each of the plurality of bins, rendering primitives of a first sub-batch rasterizing to that bin, and for each of the plurality of bins, rendering primitives of a second sub-batch rasterizing to that bin.

Abstract: A method, computer system, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for performing primitive batch binning are disclosed. The method, computer system, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium include techniques for generating a primitive batch from a plurality of primitives, computing respective bin intercepts for each of the plurality of primitives in the primitive batch, and shading the primitive batch by iteratively processing each of the respective bin intercepts computed until all of the respective bin intercepts are processed.

Abstract: An apparatus, such as a head mounted device (HMD), includes one or more processors configured to implement a graphics pipeline that renders pixels in window space with a nonuniform pixel spacing. The apparatus also includes a first distortion function that maps the non-uniformly spaced pixels in window space to uniformly spaced pixels in raster space. The apparatus further includes a scan converter configured to sample the pixels in window space through the first distortion function. The scan converter is configured to render display pixels used to generate an image for display to a user based on the uniformly spaced pixels in raster space. In some cases, the pixels in the window space are rendered such that a pixel density per subtended area is constant across the user's field of view.

Abstract: A system, method and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium are provided for hybrid rendering with deferred primitive batch binning. A primitive batch is generated from one or more primitives. A bin is identified for processing the primitive batch. At least a portion of each primitive intersecting the identified bin is processed and a next bin for processing the primitive batch is identified based on an intercept walk order. The processing is iteratively repeated for the one or more primitives in the primitive batch for successive bins until all primitives of the primitive batch are completely processed. Then, the one or more primitives in the primitive batch are further processed.

Abstract: A processing system divides an image to be rendered into one or more tiles and performs a visibility pass on the primitives of the image. During the visibility pass, the processing system generates visibility data for each primitive of a draw call of the image based on a visible primitive count and a visible draw call count. In response to a primitive of the draw call being visible in the first tile, the processing system increments the visible primitive count and generates visibility data indicating that the primitives of the draw call are to be rendered using draw call index data stored in an on-chip memory. If the primitive is the first visible primitive of the draw call, the processing system further increments the visible draw call count. Additionally, the processing system renders the primitives of the draw call using the draw call index data stored in the on-chip memory.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for compressing and decompressing a stream of indices associated with graphics primitives. A group of delta values is determined based on a group of indices of the stream of indices. The group of delta values is compared to delta values in a lookup table. The group of indices is compressed based on an entry in the lookup table if the group of delta values matches all delta values in the entry, otherwise, the group of indices is compressed based on variable-length encoding.

Abstract: One or more rotated bounding volumes are generated for one or more nodes of a bounding volume hierarchy (BVH). Volume intersection ray tracing tests are then be performed using the rotated bounding volumes with the aim of reducing the number of calculations required relative to an original, non-rotated bounding volume. Rotated bounding volumes are selected from a plurality of candidate rotations, and selection of one of the candidate rotations are based on surface areas, such as minimum total surface areas, of bounding volumes corresponding to each of the candidate rotations. In order to minimize data storage and increase performance, a number of candidate rotations may be limited to a predetermined set of rotations.
