Abstract
Currently with performing a visibility pass for two or more coarse bins of an image, a processing system determines a bounding box for a primitive to be rendered for the image based on a bottom left-most point of the primitive and a top right-most point of the primitive. The processing system then determines whether each tile of the image inside the boundary box is completely covered by the primitive. In response to the primitive not completely covering a tile, the depth data for the primitive in that tile is discarded. In response to the primitive completely covering a tile, the depth data for the primitive in that tile is passed on to a depth buffer. Based on the depth data passed to the depth buffer, the processing system then performs pixel-based rendering of the primitive.
