Advanced Shape Processor
Abstract
The shape processor is a rendering module that may be used to stream graphical objects having a predefined format into a frame buffer or a physical display. Documents to be rendered by the shape processor may be decomposed into primitive graphical objects and passed to the shape processor, which may in turn compose the objects for display. Composed objects are then blended into current video data on an object by object basis.
