An apparatus, system and method is provided to determine a motion of pixels in local regions of a scene, classify the motion into a speed category, and make decisions on how to render blocks of pixels. In one implementation the motion in a tile is classified into at least three different speed regimes. If the pixels in a tile are in a quasi-static speed regime, a determination is made whether or not to reuse a fraction of pixels from the previous frame. If the pixels are determined to be in a… Show more

An apparatus, system and method is provided to determine a motion of pixels in local regions of a scene, classify the motion into a speed category, and make decisions on how to render blocks of pixels. In one implementation the motion in a tile is classified into at least three different speed regimes. If the pixels in a tile are in a quasi-static speed regime, a determination is made whether or not to reuse a fraction of pixels from the previous frame. If the pixels are determined to be in a high speed regime, a decision is made whether or not a sampling rate may be reduced. Show less

In a graphics system regions of a frame are analyzed to determine local regions of the frame in which adaptive desampling may be performed. In one implementation a standard sampling scheme includes at least one sample per pixel and regions that are adaptively desampled have one sample for a block of pixels having a size of at least four pixels. A level of detail map is generating to identify regions in which desampling may be performed. The level of detail map may be based on detecting motion… Show more
