Abstract
Various methods are provided for generating motion vectors in the context of 3D computer-generated images. An example method includes generating, for each pixel of one or more objects to be rendered in a current frame, a 1-phase motion vector (MV) and a 0-phase motion vector (MV), each MVand MVhaving an associated depth value, to thereby form an MVtexture and an MVtexture; converting the MVtexture to a set of MVblocks and converting the MVtexture to a set of MVblocks; and outputting the set of MVblocks and the set of MVblocks for image processing.
