Abstract
Systems and methods for compositing image layers using a GPU shader module. Image layers may be mapped to a destination surface and tiled such that each tile has the same number and kind of mapped image layers. The mapped image layers of a tile may be provided to a shader module, such as a pixel shader, to composite the image layers into display data.
