  • Soft-occlusion for computer graphics rendering
    Patent number: 10878599
    Abstract: Systems and methods for rendering computer graphics using soft-occlusion are provided. A computing system can obtain display data for a virtual element to be displayed in association with imagery depicting an environment including a physical object. The computing system can generate a set of graphics occlusion parameters associated with rendering the image data and the display data based at least in a part on an estimated geometry of the physical object. The set of graphics occlusion parameters can define blending of the display data for the virtual element and the imagery at a soft-occlusion region that includes one or more locations within the estimated geometry. The computing system can render a composite image from the display data for the virtual element and the imagery based at least in part on the set of graphics occlusion parameters.
