22 results about "Computer-generated imagery" patented technology

Computer-generated imagery (CGI) is the application of computer graphics to create or contribute to images in art, printed media, video games, films, television programs, shorts, commercials, videos, and simulators. The visual scenes may be dynamic or static and may be two-dimensional (2D), though the term "CGI" is most commonly used to refer to 3D computer graphics used for creating scenes or special effects in films and television. Additionally, the use of 2D CGI is often mistakenly referred to as "traditional animation", most often in the case when dedicated animation software such as Adobe Flash or Toon Boom is not used or the CGI is hand drawn using a tablet and mouse.

Adding greater sense of reality to computer-generated images by smoothing sawtooth edges

The invention relates to adding a greater sense of reality to a computer-generated image by smoothing a jagged edge. Techniques are disclosed for adding a greater sense of reality to a computer-generated image by smoothing sawtooth edges. During rendering of an image, a particular pixel in the image is identified, where anti-aliasing will be helpful. Anti-aliasing is then performed on these identified pixels, wherein anti-aliasing is a technique for adding a greater sense of reality to the digital image by smoothing the aliasing edge. This reduces the cost of performing anti-aliasing by reducing the number of pixels in the image on which anti-aliasing is performed.
