Abstract
A wafer-scale architecture for the real-time generation of shaded, full-color perspective images of complex three-dimensional scenes is described, The system is capable of operating at the high pixel rates required to produce scenes in real time on high-resolution screens with high refresh rates. This image generation architecture meets the requirements of Catt´s fault tolerant approach to wafer-scale integration circuits
