Abstract

A tile based rendering apparatus and method is provided. The rendering method may be used to graphically represent a three dimensional (3D) model on a two dimensional (2D) display screen. Also, the rendering method may perform pre-binning with respect to objects included in a frame, and thus all geometry processing results may not be stored in an external memory and use of the external memory may be reduced.
