Title The aliasing problem in computer-synthesized shaded images
Date 1976
Description This paper describes work toward improving the quality of computer-synthesized shaded images. Current (practical) hidden-surface algorithms produce an image whose precision is strictly limited by the number of picture elements. Problems caused by this limitation are described and explained in the text. Other image production media such as television and screen printing processes exhibit the same problems, but to a far lesser extent. Therefore, current image production media are surveyed and compared to computer-synthesized images with a view toward establishing a criterion for acceptable image quality.
