During a pre-processing step, we extract curved silhouette edges from the underlying images. These edges are used to adjust the texture coordinates of the requested samples during magnification. The original image is then sampled-only once!-with the modified coordinates. The new technique provides a resolution-independent image representation capable of billions of texels per second on a mid-range graphics card.Computer Graphics [I.3.3]Three Dimensional Graphics and RealismColorshadingshadowingand textureComputer Graphics [I.3.3]Picture/Image GenerationAntialiasingImage Processing and Computer Vision [I.4.3]EnhancementSharpening and deblurring10.2312/hpg.20161200139-150
