Abstract:
One embodiment of the present invention includes a method for rendering a geometry object in a computer-generated scene. A screen space associated with a display screen is divided into a set of regions. For each region; a first sampling factor in a horizontal dimension is computed that represents a horizontal sampling factor for pixels located in the region, a second sampling factor in a vertical dimension is computed that represents a vertical sampling factor for the pixels located in the region, a first offset in the horizontal dimension is computed that represents a horizontal position associated with the region, and a second offset in the vertical dimension is computed that represent a vertical position associated with the region. When the geometry object is determined to intersect more than one region, an instance of the geometry object is generated each region that the geometry object intersects.

Claim (Index 1):
A computer-implemented method for rendering a geometry object in a computer-generated scene, the method comprising:\n dividing a screen space associated with a display screen into a plurality of regions that are arranged in a set of rows and a set of columns; for each region:\n computing a first sampling factor that comprises a horizontal sampling factor for pixels located in the region, \n computing a second sampling factor that comprises a vertical sampling factor for the pixels located in the region, \n computing a first offset that comprises a horizontal position associated with the region, and \n computing a second offset that comprises a vertical position associated with the region; \n determining that the geometry object intersects two or more regions; generating a first instance of the geometry object for a first region intersected by the geometry object; and generating a second instance of the geometry object for a second region intersected by the geometry object, wherein:\n the first region and the second region are adjacent in screen space, \n for at least one of the first region and the second region, the first sampling factor is different from the second sampling factor, and \n for at least one of the first sampling factor and the second sampling factor, the first sampling factor associated with the first region is different than the first sampling factor associated with the second region, and the second sampling factor associated with the first region is different than the second sampling factor associated with the second region.
