Animation Rendering Control for Dynamic FPS Adjustment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing animation processing technologies face challenges in optimizing frames per second (FPS) and the number of objects to be rendered in one frame, leading to suboptimal animation quality and performance, especially when resources are limited.
Innovation Solution
An apparatus and method that adjust the number of objects to be rendered in one frame and the target FPS by calculating rendering times and comparing them to preset values, allowing for dynamic adjustments to ensure optimal rendering within given time constraints, including storing objects in a circular queue and controlling the rendering window.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If the number of objects to be rendered in one frame is increased, then the animation quality is improved, but the rendering time exceeds the target time corresponding to target FPS
Solution Approach 1:
The patent dynamically adjusts the number of objects to be rendered in one frame based on the calculated rendering time and target FPS. The animation control unit modifies the rendering object count in real-time to ensure the rendering time matches the target time, allowing the system to adapt between animation quality and rendering speed requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of the number of rendering objects to control the rendering time. By adjusting this parameter based on the comparison between calculated and target rendering times, the system optimizes the balance between animation quality (more objects) and performance constraints (time limit).
2Speed
If the target FPS is increased, then the animation smoothness is improved, but the rendering time required increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the animation control unit calculates the rendering time for the current number of objects and compares it with the target time derived from target FPS. Based on this comparison, the system adjusts the number of objects to render, creating a closed-loop control that ensures the rendering process meets the target FPS while maintaining animation quality.
3Loss of information
If all objects are rendered in one frame, then the animation completeness is improved, but the rendering performance deteriorates on low-specification hardware
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies partial action by rendering only a subset of objects in one frame rather than all objects. The animation control unit determines the optimal number of objects to render based on the target FPS and available time, allowing the system to maintain acceptable animation completeness while improving rendering performance on hardware with limited capabilities.

AI summary
An apparatus for processing an animation includes an object storage unit configured to store objects included in animation content and an animation control unit configured to adjust at least one of a number of objects to be rendered in one frame among the objects included in the animation content and preset target frames per second (FPS) by calculating a rendering time of the objects to be rendered in one frame and comparing the rendering time with the target FPS.
