HYBRID RENDER WITH PREFERRED PRIMITIVE BATCH BINNING AND SORTING

Abstract:

A method, system, and non-transitory computer readable storage medium for rasterizing primitives are disclosed. The method, system, and non-transitory computer readable storage medium includes: generating a primitive batch from a sequence of one or more primitives, wherein the primitive batch includes primitives sorted into one or more row groups based on which row of a plurality of rows each primitive intersects; and processing each row group, the processing for each row group including: identifying one or more primitive column intercepts for each of the one or more primitives in the row group, wherein each combination of primitive column intercept and row identifies a bin; and rasterizing the one or more primitives that intersect the bin.
