Abstract:
Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide away to render edges of an object defined by multiple tessellation triangles. More particularly, systems, apparatuses and methods may provide a way to perform anti-aliasing at the edges of the object based on a coarse pixel rate, where the coarse pixels may be based on a coarse Z value indicate a resolution or granularity of detail of the coarse pixel. The systems, apparatuses and methods may use a shader dispatch engine to dispatch raster rules to a pixel shader to direct the pixel shader to include, in a tile and/or tessellation triangle, one more finer coarse pixels based on a percent of coverage provided by a finer coarse pixel of a tessellation triangle at or along the edge of the object.

Claim (Index 15):
A method comprising:\n receiving, into a memory, geometric primitives, wherein the geometric primitives define at least one object, wherein the object is identified by an object identifier; detecting an edge of the object within a Z value threshold based on one or more tessellation triangles along the edge, wherein the Z value threshold defines a Z value resolution; interpolating the one or more tessellation triangles at or along the edge, wherein two or more of the tessellation triangles define the edge; determining, for each of the tessellation triangles, edge metadata, the edge metadata including a number of edge crossing of one or more the edge coarse pixels, a number of edge crossing of the finer coarse pixels, or a percentage of coverage of the edge by each of the finer coarse pixels; assigning a pixel color weighting to each of the finer coarse pixels based on the percentage of coverage of the finer coarse pixels based on a color weighting threshold; merging one or more of the finer coarse pixels with the second tessellation triangle as one or more complement alternative pixels based on the color weighting threshold, wherein the complement alternative pixels complement the finer coarse pixels of the first tessellation triangle; performing blending across the tessellation triangles at or along the edge; and performing a rendered target read at a coarse pixel rate.
