The High-Level Shader Language [1] or High-Level Shading Language [2] ( HLSL) is a proprietary shading language developed by Microsoft for the Direct3D 9 API to augment the shader assembly language, and went on to become the required shading language for the unified shader model of Direct3D 10 and higher. HLSL is analogous to the GLSL shading ...
OpenGL Shading Language ( GLSL) is a high-level shading language with a syntax based on the C programming language. It was created by the OpenGL ARB (OpenGL Architecture Review Board) to give developers more direct control of the graphics pipeline without having to use ARB assembly language or hardware-specific languages.
OpenGL ( Open Graphics Library [4]) is a cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface (API) for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics. The API is typically used to interact with a graphics processing unit (GPU), to achieve hardware-accelerated rendering .
Minecraft's ray-tracing beta arrives on PC this week. Light, shadows and reflections will look more realistic. Ten years since its release, and Minecraft continues to be one of the most popular ...
Minecraft now lets you export your creations in 3D — but only on Windows 10. Minecraft players will now be able to easily save their in-game creations as 3D models. A new update adds the ...
Raylib (stylized as raylib) is a cross-platform open-source software development library. The library was made to create graphical applications and games. [3] [4] The library is designed to be suited for prototyping, tooling, graphical applications, embedded systems, and education. The source code is written in plain C ( C99 ), which is ...
Metal is a low-level, low-overhead hardware-accelerated 3D graphic and compute shader API created by Apple, debuting in iOS 8. Metal combines functions similar to OpenGL and OpenCL in one API. It is intended to improve performance by offering low-level access to the GPU hardware for apps on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and tvOS.
Bloom (sometimes referred to as light bloom or glow) is a computer graphics effect used in video games, demos, and high-dynamic-range rendering (HDRR) to reproduce an imaging artifact of real-world cameras. The effect produces fringes (or feathers) of light extending from the borders of bright areas in an image, contributing to the illusion of ...
