When WebGPU first shipped back in 2023, one of the biggest gaps that it had relative to its native counterparts was that it didn’t support bindless resources. Happily, WebGPU is on the cusp of support...

Most emissive shaders in CG make hot metal glow the same way: you type a temperature in Kelvin, a blackbody function turns it into a colour, and that colour is added on top of the material. Gold, iron...

The separating axis test (SAT) works well for computing contact manifolds. Unlike GJK, it is robust when shapes are very close together and it works when shapes are overlapped. Box3D uses SAT for comp...

Encoding textures with tile shaders: on most iPhones, as fast as not encoding at all.

Single-header dependency-free BVH construction and traversal library. - jbikker/tinybvh

Welcome to the Dolphin 2609's accompanying Progress Report! Like everyone else, we've been doing our best to weather the Techpocalypse brought on by AI, but it's really come after us in the past few m...

There's an intuitive move every render artist reaches for when a subsurface material looks too dense: turn up SSS scale. Dense SSS with MFP:1 Bigger mean free path (SSS radius).

When subsurface scattering (SSS) is driven by a blue-noise distribution, classical light transport breaks down. Light no longer decays exponentially according to the traditional Beer-Lambert law.

Spark 1.4 adds real-time BC6H and ASTC HDR texture compression, BC1 Ultra, BC7 NRM, ASTC 5×5, and broader GPU compatibility.

The WebGPU / WGSL standardization group is meeting in November and your feedback will help shape the agenda and prioritize future developments of the API and language. Results will be summarized and ...

Optimizing CPU code is a lot of fun. Here’s how we do it

Introducing webgpu-bench, the micro-benchmark suite behind Web3D Survey’s GPU benchmark, with measurements of shader operations and code patterns available through a webpage and CLI.

NOTE: This blog post assumes knowledge of GPU programming, GPU-driven rendering, D3D12 and systems programming.

A generative method for real-time global illumination using a single-step latent diffusion model, delivering stable, high-quality lighting without costly iterative processing.

Real-time visualization of 3D Gaussian Splatting using the Vulkan API

Following an LDG.E SASS instruction through the hardware units in an RTX 4090.

We just certified it. ADAR One is the first safety-certified embedded system built in Rust. I want to share how we got here, for other Rust developers who are looking at safety-critical work and wonde...
