  • Patent number: 11922611
    Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for accelerated image rendering with motion compensation. In one embodiment, a method comprises calculating motion between a preceding image frame and a target image frame to be rendered, rendering a small image with a size smaller than a target size of the target image frame based on the calculated motion, and generating the target image frame at the target size based on the small image, the calculated motion, and a reference image frame. In this way, high-quality image frames for a video stream may be generated with a reduced amount of rendering for each frame, thereby reducing the overall processing resources dedicated to rendering as well as the power consumption for image rendering.
