Real Time Rendering
Real-time rendering is one of the interactive areas of computer graphics, it means creating synthetic images fast enough on the computer so that the viewer can interact with a virtual environment. The most common place to find real-time rendering is in video games. The rate at which images are displayed is measured in frames per second (frame/s) or Hertz (Hz). The frame rate is the measurement of how quickly an imaging device produces unique consecutive images. If an application is displaying 15 frame/s it is considered real-time.

Famous quotes containing the words real, time and/or rendering:
“What we were after now was the old surprise visit. That was a real kick, good for laughs and lashings of the old ultraviolence.”
—Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)
“One cannot spend one’s time in being modern when there are so many more important things to be.”

“Ambitious men spend their youth in rendering themselves worthy of patronage; it is their great mistake. While the foolish creatures are laying in stores of knowledge and energy, so that they shall not sink under the weight of responsible posts that recede from them, schemers come and go who are wealthy in words and destitute of ideas, astonish the ignorant, and creep into the confidence of those who have a little knowledge.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
