Anisotropic Filtering (Gaming)

The definition of the word anisotropic from m-w.com states “exhibiting properties with different values when measured in different directions.” This is a common filtering technique applied to video games that helps improve the perspective of the image shown. Like anti-aliasing, various levels are available, and the higher the level of anisotropic filtering, the lower the overall performance of the game. Reviews may also focus on the effect of various levels of this filtering when presenting the frame rates achieved on a certain graphics card.

Anisotropic Filtering (Real Time 3D)

A texture filtering method, specifically for non-square filtering, usually of textures shown in radical perspective (such as a pavement texture as seen from a camera lying on the road). More generally, anisotropic improves clarity of images with severely unequal aspect ratios.
