Abstract
In one embodiment, a computing system may determine, for a pixel, a sampling location within a texture that comprises a plurality of texels, and based on the sampling location, select a set of texels in the plurality of texels. Each texel in the set of texels may encode a distance field. An interpolated distance field associated with the sampling location may be computed based on the distance fields associated with the set of texels. The interpolated distance field may represent a relative distance between the sampling location and a texture edge. According to a blending proportion based on the interpolated distance field, the computing system may determine a blended color for the sampling location by blending, a first and second color associated with a first side of the edge and a second side of the edge, and output a color for the pixel based on the blended color.
