Abstract

A computer graphics processor (20,50) and a method for rendering a three-dimensional image on a display screen. The computer graphics processor (20,50) comprises a rasterizer (23,53) configured to perform pixel traversal of a primitive after projection of the primitive. Furthermore, the rasterizer (23,53) is configured to perform the pixel traversal of a first primitive for a plurality of views prior to performing pixel traversal of a next primitive for one or several views.
