Render Target

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The render target is the memory area in which rendering takes place. With modern graphics cards, this does not have to be the back buffer , but can also be done in an intermediate area called Render Target Texture (RTT). The image contained there can then be manipulated using a pixel shader .

Multiple Render Targets can be used simultaneously with multiple render targets.
