EFFICIENT FRAME RENDERING

摘要

A user may interact with an interactive remote display (e.g., touch input) and the interaction may be sent to an application on a mobile device. The mobile device (application and/or encoder) may render frames for the display when there is a change. Latency in the pipeline may be alleviated by determine a rendering rate for an application. A dummy frame may be sent to the encoder if the application is not a constant rendering type of application. The dummy frames may be sent subsequent to the rendered frames to flush the pipeline.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving, by a mobile device, an indication of a touch input on a remote display, wherein the remote display is separate from the mobile device and the touch input is associated with a change to an application being shown on the display; determining, by the mobile device, a rendering rate for the application; sending, to an encoder of the mobile device, at least one dummy frame based on the rendering rate; rendering a plurality of frames including the at least one dummy frame, wherein the rendering fills a pipeline of the encoder; sending the plurality of frames comprising the filled pipeline to a decoder that is coupled to the display.
