Abstract
This disclosure describes examples for foveated rendering. A graphics processing unit (GPU) may render image content for portions of an image at different sizes such as at sizes smaller than the size of the portions, and store the smaller-sized image content in system memory. The GPU or some other processing circuitry may retrieve the smaller-sized image content from the system memory, and perform resizing operations to resize the image content to its actual size.
