Abstract
A rendering processor assigns varying logical pixel dimensions to regions of an image frame and rendering pixels of the image frame based on the logical pixel dimensions. The rendering processor renders in highest resolution (i.e., with smaller logical pixel dimensions) those areas of the image that are more important (on which the viewer is expected to focus (the 'foveal region'), or regions with little-to-no motion), and renders in lower resolution (i.e., with larger logical pixel dimensions) those areas of the image outside the region of interest, or regions that are speedily moving, so that loss of detail in those regions will be less noticeable to the viewer. For regions with less detail or greater magnitude of motion, larger logical pixel dimensions reduce the computational workload without affecting the quality of the displayed graphics as perceived by a user.
