ABSTRACT

Welcome to the Rendering Techniques section. This section is a reflection of some of the latest developments in the field of real-time rendering. Thanks to the flexibility of today’s GPUs, we have witnessed an explosion in the number of methods and techniques used to sample real-world phenomenon or to model special effects from our own minds. It is great to see that almost every new game today holds a number of rendering recipes that gives it its unique look and feel. But it is even much greater that the makers of those products actually share their work with the entire community.
