ABSTRACT:
A computer graphics processing system includes a graphics processor and a computer memory responsive to the graphics processor. The computer memory includes an image depth buffer and a hierarchical image depth buffer. The hierarchical image depth buffer contains data items that identify a nearest depth value and a farthest depth value for a plurality of image depth buffer entries associated with a plurality of corresponding pixels.
