Multi-sampling anti-aliasing compression by use of unreachable bit combinations

摘要

Techniques related to graphics rendering including techniques for improved multi-sampling anti-aliasing compression by use of unreachable bit combinations as described.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method for providing anti-aliasing in graphics rendering comprising:
determining bit combinations for individual pixels of a tile of pixels, wherein the individual pixels include two or more color samples within the individual pixels, wherein the bit combinations indicate one or more indicated color planes of one or more populated color planes associated with the color samples of the individual pixels, and wherein the one or more populated color planes are populated with one or more colors associated with the color samples of the individual pixels; and transforming at least one bit combination of the bit combinations to an unreachable bit combination, wherein the unreachable bit combination indicates a characteristic associated with at least one color plane of the one or more color planes.
