Stochastic transparency rendering with optimised stratified sampling

摘要

The application relates to optimising stratified sampling associated with rendering using stochastic transparency. Surface data associated to be rendered is received and rendered using stochastic transparency wherein the stratified sampling associated with the stochastic transparency is optimized. This optimisation may take the form of generation of reference opacity values associated with the surface data, tracking the surfaces to be rendered or sorting the samples of the pixel surface to be rendered.
