Abstract
A method of performing anisotropic texture filtering includes generating one or more parameters describing an elliptical footprint in texture space; performing isotropic filtering at each of a plurality of sampling points along a major axis of the elliptical footprint, wherein a spacing between adjacent sampling points of the plurality of sampling points is proportional to √{square root over (1−η)} units, wherein η is a ratio of a major radius of an ellipse to be sampled and a minor radius of the ellipse to be sampled, wherein the ellipse to be sampled is based on the elliptical footprint; and combining results of the isotropic filtering at the plurality of sampling points with a Gaussian filter to generate at least a portion of a filter result.
