An Analytic Visible Surface Algorithm for Independent Pixel Processing
Edwin Catmull
Computer Graphics (Proceedings of SIGGRAPH 84), July 1984, pp. 109--115.

Abstract: Catmull presents algorithms for displaying objects, including filters which create the illusion of motion blur. While not as effective (in my mind anyway) as distributed ray tracing, the technique probably is quite efficient and can be used effectively.

Keyword(s): motion blur, scanline algorithms, patches, Hidden-Surface Removal
