Abstract:
Systems and methods that facilitate efficient and effective shadow image generation are presented. In one embodiment, a hard shadow generation system comprises a compute shader, pixel shader and graphics shader. The compute shader is configured to retrieve pixel depth information and generate projection matrix information, wherein the generating includes performing dynamic re-projection from eye-space to light space utilizing the pixel depth information. The pixel shader is configured to create light space visibility information. The graphics shader is configured to perform frustum trace operations to produce hard shadow information, wherein the frustum trace operations utilize the light space visibility information. The light space visibility information can be considered irregular z information stored in an irregular z-buffer.

Claim (Index 12):
The method of dynamic re-projection of  claim 11 , wherein the plurality of matrices comprises:\n a first matrix corresponding to a projection of an original set of pixels minus the subset of pixels; and a second matrix corresponding to a dynamic re-projection of the subset of pixels.
