Abstract:
1. A method for deriving a pixel color comprising the steps of: a computer calculating a first position vector for a geometric graphic object; a computer calculating a particular steradian region of space; a computer calculating a particular steradian radius of said steradian region of space; a computer calculating that said first position vector is located in said particular steradian region of space; a computer calculating a second position vector for a geometric graphic object; a computer calculating that said second position vector is located in said particular steradian region of space; a computer calculating a length of said first position vector; a computer calculating a length of said second position vector; a computer comparing said first length to said second length; for a first pixel, a computer deriving a pixel color for said first position vector from a result of said length comparison; for a second pixel, a computer deriving a pixel color for said second position vector from a result of said length comparison.
