Primitives within the tiles are processed to perform hidden surface removal and to apply texturing to the primitives. The graphics processing system includes a plurality of depth buffers, thereby allowing a processing module to process primitives of one tile by accessing one of the depth buffers while primitive identifiers of another, partially processed tile are stored in another one of the depth buffers. This allows the graphics processing system to have “multiple tiles in flight”, which can increase the efficiency of the graphics processing system.

Abstract: A display device includes: a display means that displays a virtual image of a picture by projecting display light representing the picture on a windshield; an identification means that identifies a target outside the vehicle; a control means that causes a first captured image, visually recognized as being superposed on at least a part of the target, to be displayed in the picture; and a vibration detection means that detects the amount of vibration of the vehicle. The control means, when the amount of vibration detected by the vibration detection means exceeds a threshold value, causes a second captured image to be displayed instead of the first captured image. The second captured image is an image of which a color shade difference between pixels configuring an image end and a region outside the image and adjacent to the image end is decreased compared with the first captured image.

Abstract: System and method of dynamically adjusting a frame buffer resolution. An average frame rate is dynamically computed based on the frame rates with respect to rendering a sequence of previous frames to a frame buffer. The frame rates may vary with the processing load of an associated graphics processor. A target scaling factor for frame buffer resolution is computed based upon the dynamic average frame rate and a desired frame rate. The current scaling factor of frame buffer resolution for rendering a respective frame data of a sequence of frame data to the frame buffer is adjusted incrementally to reach the target scaling factor. Accordingly, frame resolutions for rendering the sequence of frame data to the frame buffer are incrementally adjusted based on corresponding current scaling factors.

Abstract: A system and method for receiving an ordered set of images and analyzing the images to determine at least one position in space and at least one motion vector in space and time for at least one object represented in the images is disclosed. Using these vectors, a four dimensional model of at least a portion of the information represented in the images is formulated. This model generally obeys the laws of physics, though aberrations may be imposed. The model is then exercised with an input parameter, which, for example, may represent a different perspective than the original set of images. The four dimensional model is then used to produce a modified set of ordered images in dependence on the input parameter and optionally the set of images, e.g., if only a portion of the data represented in the images is modeled. The set of images may then be rendered on a display device.
