MULTI-INPUT DISPLAY
A multi-input display device may, responsive to a user-selection, divide a display region into different regions corresponding to display data received at different input graphics ports. Display metadata for each display region may be individually transmitted to each respective source of the display data.
Client-server visualization system with hybrid data processing
The invention comprises a system of client-server visualization with hybrid data processing, having a server digital data processor, that allows for server side rendering and processing image data, and client digital data processors simultaneously connected to the server, which receives messages from the clients, creates rendered images of data sets or other data processing results and sends those rendered images and results to the clients for display or further processing. Performing certain image rendering operations on either the server or the client according to which is better suited for the tasks requested by the user at any point in time, and possibly adjusting this division of work dynamically, improves rendering speed and application responsiveness on the clients.
VARIABLE REFRESH RATE VIDEO CAPTURE AND PLAYBACK
A method for displaying video. The method includes executing an application at a processor. As instructed by the processor when executing the application, the method includes rendering a plurality of image frames at a plurality of graphics processing units (GPUs). The method includes determining information related to relative timing between renderings of the plurality of image frames. The method includes encoding the plurality of image frames into a video file. The method includes encoding the information into the video file.
Information processing device and information processing method
An information processing device including a control unit that senses a state that causes decrease of a display frame rate of a virtual object presented to a user and dynamically change a display detail level of the virtual object in accordance with a result of the sensing is provided.
Proactive power management of a graphics processor
Systems, methods, and computer readable media to manage power for a graphics processor are described. When the power management component determines the graphics processor is idle when processing a current frame by the graphics processor, the power management component predicts an idle period for the graphics processor based on the work history. The power management component obtains a first latency value indicative of a power on time period and a second latency value indicative of a power off time period for a graphics processor component, such as graphics processor hardware. The power management component provides power instructions to transition the graphics processor component to the power off state based on a determination that a combined latency value of the first latency value and the second latency value is less than the idle period.
SYSTEMS AND METHOD FOR GPU BASED VIRTUAL REALITY VIDEO STREAMING SERVER
Systems and methods of processing and streaming a virtual reality video using a graphics processing unit (GPU) are provided. A video server is configured to cause a processor to read, from a video data source, source video data including multiple spherical image frame data and store the source video data in a first memory. The video server is further configured to cause the GPU to convert, in response to storing first spherical image frame data in a first frame buffer of a second memory, the first spherical image frame data to first equirectangular image frame data that correspond to a portion of spherical image represented by the first spherical image frame data, encode the converted first equirectangular image frame data and store the encoded first equirectangular image frame data in an encoded frame buffer of the second memory.
SUB-FRAME SCANOUT FOR LATENCY REDUCTION IN VIRTUAL REALITY APPLICATIONS
A system, computer readable medium, and method for sub-frame scan-out are disclosed. The method includes the steps of dividing a frame into a plurality of slices. For each slice in the plurality of slices, the steps further include sampling a sensor associated with a head mounted display to generate sample data corresponding to the slice; adjusting one or more parameters associated with rendering operations for the slice based on the sample data; and rendering primitive data associated with a model according to the rendering operations to generate image data for the slice. Each slice is a portion of the frame and corresponds to different sample data from the sensor. Thus, adjusting of the parameters is different for each slice of the frame.
INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM
An information processing apparatus that has a display unit and a plurality of graphic controllers, the apparatus comprises: a detection unit that detects an event that is generated by a user operation on the display unit; a determination unit that determines, when the event is detected by the detection unit, which of the plurality of graphic controllers an application displaying a screen on the display unit uses; and a transmission unit that, based on a resolution of the display unit and information of the application for which the determination is made by the determination unit, converts coordinate information of the user operation that the event indicates to a value of a coordinate system corresponding to the graphic controller that the application uses, and transmits a result of the conversion to the application.
Method and system for rule based display of sets of images using image content derived parameters
The invention provides, in some aspects, a system for implementing a rule derived basis to display image sets. In various embodiments of the invention, the selection of the images to be displayed, the layout of the images, as well as the rendering parameters and styles can be determined using a rule derived basis. The rules are based on meta data of the examination as well as image content that is being analyzed by neuronal networks. In an embodiment of the present invention, the user is presented with images displayed based on their preferences without having to first manually adjust parameters.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR EFFICIENT GRAPHICS VIRTUALIZATION
An apparatus and method are described for allocating local memories to virtual machines. For example, one embodiment of an apparatus comprises: a command streamer to queue commands from a plurality of virtual machines (VMs) or applications, the commands to be distributed from the command streamer and executed by graphics processing resources of a graphics processing unit (GPU); a tile cache to store graphics data associated with the plurality of VMs or applications as the commands are executed by the graphics processing resources; and tile cache allocation hardware logic to allocate a first portion of the tile cache to a first VM or application and a second portion of the tile cache to a second VM or application; the tile cache allocation hardware logic to further allocate a first region in system memory to store spill-over data when the first portion of the tile cache and/or the second portion of the file cache becomes full.
