A graphics system includes triangle-engine for real-time rendering into a displayable frame-buffer of image data derived from vertex-based deferred instructions. The system uses homogeneity values (1/w values) for z-buffer-like occlusion mapping as well as for texture mapping. Depth resolution is enhanced for both occlusion mapping and texture mapping by representing (1/w), (u/w) and (v/w) values in a block-fixed format.

Inverse Z-buffer and video display system having list-based control

A system and method for controlling a real-time rendering engine includes a control program for defining in regions of system memory a block header and a list of flow-control instructions.
