PARALLEL RENDERERS FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17900831 titled 'PARALLEL RENDERERS FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes electronic devices that have multiple renderers, including a system renderer and one or more application renderers. These renderers are responsible for rendering different types of content generated by various applications on the device.

  • The electronic device includes a system renderer and one or more application renderers.
  • The system renderer renders system content and application content generated by some applications on the device.
  • The application renderers render application content generated by other corresponding applications.
  • A compositor receives the rendered content from the system renderer and application renderers.
  • The compositor generates a composite display environment that includes the rendered content from both the system renderer and application renderers.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied to various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and computers.
  • It can enhance the user experience by allowing multiple applications to render their content simultaneously.
  • It can be useful in multi-tasking scenarios where users need to view and interact with content from different applications at the same time.

Problems Solved

  • Prior to this technology, electronic devices typically had a single renderer, limiting the ability to display content from multiple applications concurrently.
  • This technology solves the problem of content overlap or interference when multiple applications are running simultaneously.
  • It provides a solution for efficiently managing and displaying content from both system and application renderers.

Benefits

  • Users can view and interact with content from multiple applications simultaneously, improving productivity and multitasking capabilities.
  • The technology enables a more seamless and integrated user experience by combining content from different sources into a single display environment.
  • It allows for better resource allocation and management, optimizing the performance of the electronic device.


Original Abstract Submitted

Aspects of the subject technology relate to electronic devices having multiple renderers. The multiple renderers may include a system renderer that renders system content and application content generated by some applications at the electronic device, and one or more application renderers that render application content generated by one or more other corresponding applications. The electronic device may include a compositor that receives rendered content from the system renderer and one or more application renderers, and generates a composite display environment that concurrently includes the rendered content from the system renderer and one or more application renderers.
