Temporal approximation of trilinear filtering
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving instructions to render a snapshot of a scene for a video, where the snapshot is to be displayed using a sequence of N frames, computing a mipmap-level determining factor for a texture appearing in the scene based on a scale of the texture on a pixel grid, selecting a mipmap level of the texture for each of the N frames based on the mipmap-level determining factor, where the mipmap levels selected for the N frames are non-uniform and temporally approximate the mipmap-level determining factor, rendering each of the N frames by sampling the mipmap level of the texture selected for that frame, and displaying the rendered N frames sequentially to represent the snapshot of the scene.
