Abstract
A graphics processing pipeline includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to determine attribute information for an object to be rendered for a set of sampling points from a compressed representation of attribute information associated with the object, when the set of sampling points is being processed by the graphics processing pipeline to generate a render output. The processing circuitry is also configured to use the determined attribute information to control the processing of the set of sampling points by the graphics processing pipeline when generating the render output.
