TY - CONF A1 - Tycowicz, Christoph von A1 - Loviscach, Jörn T1 - Measuring and Enhancing the Legibility of GPU-rendered Text T2 - Eurographics 2008 Short Papers N2 - The limited spatial resolution of standard computer displays impedes the legibility of text. To improve the rendering, we have developed a number of strategies that employ GPU-based shader programs and appropriate preprocessing steps. We devised and implemented a set of methods that may be used alone or in combination ranging from simple measures such as gamma-correct MIPmapping to complex ones such as RGB subpixel rendering combined with supersampling. We have researched into their performance in terms of both legibility and speed. We difinded a psychovisual test that quantifies legibility quickly enough to compare a selection of promising techniques. The results allow to choose the optimum blend of rendering methods for a given set of requirements. Y1 - 2008 UR - https://opus4.kobv.de/opus4-zib/frontdoor/index/index/docId/5485 SP - 45 EP - 48 ER -
