Abstract

Technology related to efficient, coverage-optimized, resolution-independent, and anti-aliased graphics processing is described. Uniquely, an example system may include a graphics processing unit configured to receive a plurality of vertices representing a control polygon of a curve and expanding the control polygon of the curve. The graphic processing unit may further tessellate the control polygon into a plurality of tiles, select a subset of tiles from the plurality of tiles based on satisfying selection criteria, rasterize fragments using the selected subset of tiles, and render the curve based on the fragments.
