Abstract
A method and apparatus for generating a composite image from multiple source images using multiple local masks. Each source image is generated by an image generator. Each image generator has a local mask that indicates which pixels of the source image are to be transmitted to a frame buffer. The local mask may also be used to indicate which pixels of the source image are to be updated by the image generator.
