Recently, one of the responses to the Reconstruction Positions […] post dealt with the unprojection of frustum corners. More specifically: with the inverted projection matrix and the final division with the coordinate. Being the lazy sod that I am on Sundays, I thought I’d quickly google it and paste a link with the explanation. Only one problem:…
I’ve recently decided to look into supporting subsurface scattering in my playground rendering engine Helix. It’s not the first time I’ve dabbled in the subject, but not being limited to crappy platforms I could push things a bit further. It’s a well researched and oft written about topic, so I’ve been reluctant to write up…
Introduction It’s been a while since last time, when I promised a general method for depth reconstruction regardless of projection type. I had told myself to do it “soon”. Due to lack of time partly caused by moving to Ghent and other random occurrences “soon” changed into “sooner or later” and finally we’ve arrived at…
Introduction [edit] To start things off more easily, I decided to limit this post to perspective projections and move on to the generalization (including orthographic projections) in a next blog post. When doing deferred shading or some post-processing effects, we’ll need the 3D position of the pixel we’re currently shading at some point. Rather than…
Albeit with trembling knees, I’m very excited to announce I’ll be speaking at FMX this year, ‘Europe’s most renowned conference on digital entertainment’. It’s an intimidating place to be, with many of my heroes either in the organisation or in the speaker list! Luckily I won’t be alone; the session will be part of the…
