  • Publication number: 20220392144
    Abstract: This application discloses an image rendering method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium, and belongs to the field of image processing technologies. The method includes: acquiring a lightmap of a target three-dimensional model in response to a light rendering instruction; acquiring a seam edge of the target three-dimensional model; determining, in the lightmap, a target pixel corresponding to the seam edge; and updating an initial pixel value of the target pixel in the lightmap to obtain a repaired lightmap. In this application, the seam edge of the target three-dimensional model is automatically identified, and the pixel value of the target pixel is automatically updated, so that automatic recognition and automatic repair of a seam problem can be completed by one click, thereby avoiding a waste of labor resources for troubleshooting and repairing the seam problem, reducing image rendering time, and improving image rendering efficiency.

  • Publication number: 20220207820
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for recognizing a pixel point, an illumination rendering method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium, which is used to effectively detect a pixel point located in a shadow region, to improve the quality of lightmap rendering. The method includes: obtaining a lightmap of a target object in a target scene; determining, according to a distance between each adjacent pixel point of a pixel point in the lightmap and the pixel point, a coverage radius corresponding to the pixel point; and determining, by using the pixel point as a starting point, that when a ray emitted along at least one tangential direction of the pixel point intersects an unlighted surface of an object in the target scene and a length of the ray is the same as the coverage radius, the pixel point is located in the shadow region.

  • Publication number: 20220207821
    Abstract: An image rendering method and a related apparatus, terminal and storage medium that: obtains a low-resolution first shadow map and a high-resolution second shadow map of a target virtual object, determines a first texel range of each texel and a central point in the first shadow map, performs scaling processing, based on the central point, on the first texel range by using a scaling coefficient to obtain a second texel range, and performs shadow rendering on the target virtual object according to the second texel range. A shadow map-based image rendering process is implemented, and since a calculation amount of determining a map position according to a low-resolution map is relatively small, image rendering efficiency is improved. Additionally, rendering of a high-resolution shadow map is completed, generation of edge aliasing is avoided, and an image rendering effect is improved.

  • Patent number: 9924563
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a method for realizing a Mobile Switch Center (MSC) pool, a system for realizing an MSC pool and a Media Gateway (MGW). The method for realizing an MSC pool includes: connecting with a Base Station Controllers (BSC)/Radio Network Controller (RNC), by a Media Gateway (MGW) through the use of a common signaling point; and upon receipt of a message whose destination signaling point is the common signaling point from the BSC/RNC, determining, by the MGW, a destination MSC server of the message according to ID information carried in the message, and sending the received message to the destination MSC server. According to the present invention, the networking scheme for an MSC pool may be implemented without upgrading any BSC/RNC. The flexibility of the networking scheme for mobile communication systems may be improved, and the traffic load of the subscribers may be shared.

  • Patent number: 8264999
    Abstract: A method for realizing paging in a mobile switching center (MSC) pool includes the following steps. An MSC server selects a media gateway (MGW) from more than one MGW connected to a base station controller (BSC)/radio network controller (RNC), delivers a paging message of an international mobile station identity (IMSI) paging type to the selected MGW, and stores a corresponding relation between an IMSI carried in the paging message and the MSC server in the MGW which is connected to the BSC/RNC and does not receive the paging message. The MGW that does not receive the paging message receives a paging response message sent by the BSC/RNC, determines an MSC server corresponding to an IMSI carried in the paging response message by looking up the corresponding relation between the IMSI and the MSC server stored therein, and routes the received paging response message to the corresponding MSC server. Several other methods and devices for realizing paging are also provided.
