Application: Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and information processing program (Patent ID: US20240169654A1)
The patent filed by Sony Group Corp. describes an information processing apparatus designed to create rendered videos using a ray tracing method at a faster speed. The apparatus includes a renderer that renders model data using ray tracing and another method to create two separate videos, which are then synthesized by a video synthesis unit to produce a final video. Additionally, the renderer can thin out model data for every N frames, calculate motion vectors, and correct ray traced videos based on these vectors to enhance the final synthesized video quality.
Furthermore, the information processing apparatus allows for the setting of unique representation regions for the ray tracing method, creation of mask videos for masking specific regions, and pre-rendering model data at lower samples per pixel or resolution. The renderer can also create various internal components for the additional video, such as Albedo, normal, depth, roughness, UV map, arbitrary output variables (AOVs), and shadow map components. The method and program associated with this apparatus involve rendering model data using ray tracing and another method, then synthesizing the resulting videos to create a final output.
