  • Patent number: 7460128
    Abstract: In an image drawing apparatus for conducting a data transfer at a bit unit for image data stored in a memory device, a region storing part stores a region where at least one attribute value concerning a pixel is not constant in the image data, an attribute value storing value stores each attribute value of pixels in the region, a constant value storing part stores a constant value as the attribute value, an inside region determining part determines whether or not a coordinate being transferred is within the region, and a selection signal generating part selects one of the attribute value storing part as a selected storing part and the constant value storing part based on a determination result obtained by the inside region determining part, and generating a selection signal indicating the selected storing part, wherein a predetermined process for source image data is conducted by obtaining the attribute value from the selected storing part.

  • Patent number: 6414692
    Abstract: A graphics processing apparatus includes a drawn field register which stores coordinate values of boundaries of a drawn field, and an end point coordinate register which stores coordinate values of end points of a graphical element of interest. A first comparator compares the coordinate values of the boundaries of the drawn field with the coordinate values of the end points of the graphical element of interest. A comparison result register stores comparison results output by the first comparator. A decoder determines, based on the comparison results, whether the graphical element of interest should be drawn in the drawn field.
