rasterizers; however, it did so "in a different way"
The shape is then transformed to a stream of fragments (of size equal to the number of pixels in the shape) by the
rasterizer. Fragments up to the number of processors can be processed simultaneously.
The GeForce2 GTS includes the NVIDIA Shading
Rasterizer (NSR), a radical new technology that enables advanced per-pixel shading capabilities.
A
rasterizer [a "machine"] for converting vector list data representing sample magnitudes of an input waveform into anti-aliased pixel illumination intensity data to be displayed on a display means comprising: (a) [means] for determining the vertical distance between the endpoints of each of the vectors in the data list; (b) [means] for determining the elevation of a row of pixels that is spanned by the vector; (c) [means] for normalizing the vertical distance and elevation; and (d) [means] for outputting illumination intensity data as a predetermined function of the normalized vertical distance and elevation.
Option LV7600-SER06 is its equivalent for the LV7600
rasterizer. Both options provide full conformance with the SMPTE 2110 standard for transmitting 4K content in a non-compressed format at up to 25 gigabits per second.
Sun Expert3D-Lite's architecture consists of three dedicated memory banks, a geometry accelerator, a
rasterizer and a bus interface.
Alappat's invention was an improved
rasterizer for an oscilloscope.(132) Signals in electrical circuits often vary cyclically at a high frequency, e.g., in the form of a sine wave.
The Fire GL2 and Fire GL3 include the IBM RC 1000 256-bit graphics
rasterizer and a 256-bit double data rate (DDR) memory interface that doubles the usable bandwidth to provide fast frame rates at higher resolutions and color depths.
In addition, we are also deploying the Tektronix 3G Waveform monitor and 3G
rasterizer with advanced Gamut Monitoring Package to conform to 3G quality and maintain strict quality control.
In dual screen mode, the Oxygen GVX420 can directly drive two independent displays each with a dedicated
rasterizer, effectively acting as two 64MB graphics boards.
UK-based Phabrix, which was established in 2005 and has a team of R&D, sales, manufacturing, support and administration personnel, has a range portable and handheld test and measurement tools, as well as rack-mounted fault and diagnosis monitors including
rasterizers for hybrid IP/SDI, 4K/UHD and HDR/WCG.
The maxed-out new Southern Islands GPU (the 7900 series, code-named "Tahiti") can contain up to 32 compute units (CUs) supported by two geometry engines and
rasterizers (one of each for every collection of 16 CUs), one L2 cache up to 768KB, four render back-ends (offering 32 color ROPs per clock and 128 Z/stencil ROPs per clock), and a 384-bit GDDR5 memory interface with bandwidth up to 264GBps.
There will also be a doubling of graphic engines with two two
rasterizers, two geometry assemblers, two vertex assemblers and two tessellators with off-chip buffer support, with each of the engines apparently "more independent and [of] higher performance", resulting in of course, higher performance overall.
The great benefit of this engine is the support 3D rendering via OpenGL, DirectX 8 and 9, OpenGL and internal software
rasterizers. External renderers and windowing systems plugged in through simple interfaces, giving rise to community-made SDL, iPhone and SymbianOS devices.
