Abstract
An apparatus and method for performing coarse pixel shading (CPS). For example, one embodiment of a method comprises: A method for coarse pixel shading (CPS) comprising: pre-processing a graphics mesh by creating a tangent-plane parameterization of desired vertex attributes for each vertex of the mesh; and performing rasterization of the mesh in a rasterization stage of a graphics pipeline using the tangent-plane parameterization.
