Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for rendering a surface in a synthetic scene using gutter space padding for texture atlases. Gutter space adjacent to UV shells may be padded with texels from the UV shells used for neighboring surfaces, rather than merely extending the interior texels. The result is that distracting artifacts, caused by mesh downsampling that produces sub-optimal polygon shapes and vertex placement may be mitigated. The resulting rendering, manifesting lessened artifacts, may appear to be less impacted by downsampling, and thus improve the experience for the viewer or other synthetics data consumer. The improvement may be used in rendering for human users and also training neural networks in computer vision tasks, such as object detection and recognition.

Claim (Index 19):
The one or more computer storage devices of  claim 17  further comprising:\n determining whether the projection of the second polygon onto the texture atlas also includes a second portion of gutter space; and \n based at least on determining that the projection of the second polygon includes the second portion of gutter space, padding the second portion of gutter space with texels from the second UV shell.
