Abstract:
1. A method, comprising: identifying w-values using a graphics processor, wherein each w-value is associated with an object in at least one surface to be rendered and indicates a depth of the associated object; calculating statistics associated with the at least one surface based on the w-values using the graphics processor; and calculating a convergence value to be used in association with stereoscopic rendering, of the at least one surface based on the statistics, wherein calculating the statistics includes comparing w-values associated with objects in the at least one surface to identify at least one of a nearest w-value at an outer edge of the at least one surface, a nearest w-value in an entirety of the at least one surface, a nearest w-value at a center of the at least one surface, and a farthest w-value in an entirety of the at least one surface.
