Latest Patents
“System and Method for Creating a Design Tool Using a Clockwise Fill Rule” describes a design tool that lets users create paths made up of contours and designate each contour as a hole or a fill. The system automatically orders points counterclockwise for holes and clockwise for fills. For self-intersecting contours, it selects the ordering that makes most of the contour’s area wind in the intended direction.
“System and Method for Rendering Path Coverage Mask with an Antialiasing Stroke in Interactive Computer Graphics” presents a technique for rendering smooth lines along paths. It uses a single GPU shader program and draw call to generate an antialiased coverage mask, with tessellation and a floating-point coverage-count buffer.
Career Highlights
Dalton’s listed company affiliations include Rive LLC and Medline Industries, Inc. His patent work reflects an emphasis on graphics software and methods for efficiently creating and rendering visual paths.
Collaborations
Among Dalton’s listed coworkers are Scott Bedoe and James E. Burgess.
Conclusion
Christopher Dalton’s patents address practical challenges in interactive graphics, from organizing path contours to rendering smooth, antialiased strokes.
