ABSTRACT:
A graphics accelerator is disclosed that achieves high performance at a relatively low cost by overcoming the variety of system constraints. The graphics accelerator comprises a command preprocessor for translating differing geometry input data formats into a standard format, a set of floating-point processors optimized for three dimensional graphics functions, and a set of draw processors that concurrently perform edgewalking and scan interpolation rendering functions for separate portions of a triangle.
