Abstract
A system for simulating depth of field in a computer graphics display is provided according to an exemplary embodiment. The system comprises an image generation circuit configured to generate an image representing a plurality of objects for display on the computer graphics display. The image generation circuit is configured to generate the image using a single blur parameter for each of the plurality of objects that represents both a magnitude of blur and a relative distance with respect to a lens focal distance being simulated by the image generation circuit.
