Abstract
This disclosure describes a method for performing conservative rasterization in a processor comprising determining vertices of a primitive, defining edges of the primitive by determining a set of edge equations based on the determined vertices, wherein the edge equations are based on an edge shifting parameter plus an offset, determining pixels that touch the edges of the primitive using the determined edge equations, and rasterizing the primitive using the determined pixels.
