Publication number: 20200118526Abstract: Systems and methods may provide for determining a start time for an output image scanner to begin scanning an output image to a display device, determining a processing start time for each row of blocks of image pixel data within a rasterizer to ensure its completion before each row of blocks of image pixel data within the output image begin to be scanned out, and scheduling the start of processing of each row of blocks of image pixel data. In one example, the start time for the rasterizer to process a row of blocks of image pixel data uses the number of graphical objects to rendered into the output image and the processing times required by prior images.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2019Publication date: April 16, 2020Inventors: Hugues Labbe, Karthik Vaidyanathan, Prasoonkumar Surti, Atsuo Kuwahara, Sameer Kp, Jonathan Kennedy
