  2. Render output unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Render_output_unit

    In computer graphics, the render output unit (ROP) or raster operations pipeline is a hardware component in modern graphics processing units (GPUs) and one of the final steps in the rendering process of modern graphics cards.

  3. Ray-tracing hardware - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray-tracing_hardware

    The problem of rendering 3D graphics can be conceptually presented as finding all intersections between a set of "primitives" (typically triangles or polygons) and a set of "rays" (typically one or more per pixel). [1] Up to 2010, all typical graphic acceleration boards, called graphics processing units (GPUs), used rasterization algorithms.

  4. Rasterisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rasterisation

    Raster graphic image. In computer graphics, rasterisation (British English) or rasterization (American English) is the task of taking an image described in a vector graphics format (shapes) and converting it into a raster image (a series of pixels, dots or lines, which, when displayed together, create the image which was represented via shapes).

  5. Rendering (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_(computer_graphics)

    In principle, any 2D vector graphics renderer can be used to render 3D objects by first projecting them onto a 2D image plane. [27]: 93, 431, 505, 553 3D rasterization Adapts 2D rasterization algorithms so they can be used more efficiently for 3D rendering, handling hidden surface removal via scanline or z-buffer techniques. Different realistic ...

  6. Turing (microarchitecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_(microarchitecture)

    Turing is the codename for a graphics processing unit (GPU) microarchitecture developed by Nvidia. It is named after the prominent mathematician and computer scientist Alan Turing . The architecture was first introduced in August 2018 at SIGGRAPH 2018 in the workstation-oriented Quadro RTX cards, [ 2 ] and one week later at Gamescom in consumer ...

  7. Graphics pipeline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_pipeline

    The rasterization step is the final step before the fragment shader pipeline that all primitives are rasterized with. In the rasterization step, discrete fragments are created from continuous primitives. In this stage of the graphics pipeline, the grid points are also called fragments, for the sake of greater distinctiveness.

  8. Real-time computer graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computer_graphics

    Real-time computer graphics or real-time rendering is the sub-field of computer graphics focused on producing and analyzing images in real time. The term can refer to anything from rendering an application's graphical user interface ( GUI ) to real-time image analysis , but is most often used in reference to interactive 3D computer graphics ...

  9. Fragment processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragment_processing

    Fragment processing is a term in computer graphics referring to a collection of operations applied to fragments generated by the rasterization operation in the rendering pipeline. During the rendering of computer graphics, the rasterization step takes a primitive , described by its vertex coordinates with associated color and texture ...
