Abstract

The disclosure provides a rendering system and a rendering method that split the pixels of a full frame into partial image fields and process those image fields individually in parallel. In one example, the rendering system includes: (1) an interface configured to receive a full frame, and (2) one or more processors, coupled to the interface, that split the full frame into a plurality of partial image fields, each of the partial image fields corresponding to different pixels of the full frame, process the partial image fields in parallel; and render the full frame using the processed partial image fields. The partial image fields are processed by ray tracing each of the partial image fields using a different type of ray in parallel.
