Claim One:
1. A method of rasterizing a motion blurred triangle comprising: using a computer to analytically determine a time interval of overlap for a sample point for each of a plurality of time dependent edge equations; storing, for said interval, when the sample point is inside a moving triangle; approximating a rational depth function for said interval as a linear function; and storing, for said interval, parameters of the linear function, the parameters including a depth at a point in the interval, a slope of a depth function of the interval, a color of the interval and times at the beginning and end of the interval, wherein if a number of stored intervals per pixel exceeds a threshold value; estimating a similarity between each of the stored intervals based on their respective stored parameters; and merging the two stored intervals having the highest similarity until the number of stored intervals per pixel is less than or equal to the threshold value.
