Title:
HEURISTIC-BASED VARIABLE RATE SHADING FOR MOBILE GAMES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/204920
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus, and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for heuristic-based variable rate shading for mobile games. A CPU that includes a GPU driver may obtain draw call information for a first frame of a plurality of frames. The first frame may be shaded based on a default shading rate (e.g., full shading rate). The draw call information may be associated with per shader frame states of the first frame. The CPU may estimate/detect one or more heavy draws for one or more subsequent frames of the plurality of frames based on the per shader states. The CPU may indicate, on a per draw basis, a reduced shading rate (e.g., half-shading rate) to a GPU that generates the one or more subsequent frames of the plurality of frames, when the plurality of frames is estimated to include the one or more heavy draws.
