Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A visual display system uses commercial graphics processing units (GPUs) to determine an occlusion of calligraphic light points (CLPs) in a visual display. A color buffer pointer address of the GPUs is changed to point to a CLP subpixel counter and color datum associated with each CLP is changed to an identifier of the respective CLPs so that an occlusion count of GPU indications can be accumulated.

Why it's free to use
- Filed November 1, 2002. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended November 1, 2022.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 1, 2024.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
