Each recipe will enable you to incrementally add features to your codebase and show you how to integrate different 3D rendering techniques and algorithms into one large project. You'll also get to grips with core techniques such as physically based rendering, image-based rendering, and CPU\/GPU geometry culling, to name a few. As you advance, you'll explore common techniques and solutions that will help you to work with large datasets for 2D and 3D rendering. Finally, you'll discover how to apply optimization techniques to build performant and feature-rich graphics applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy the end of this 3D rendering book, you'll have gained an improved understanding of best practices used in modern graphics APIs and be able to create fast and versatile 3D rendering frameworks.\u003c\/p\u003eWhat you will learn\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImprove the performance of legacy OpenGL applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManage a substantial amount of content in real-time 3D rendering engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscover how to debug and profile graphics applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand how to use the Approaching Zero Driver Overhead (AZDO) philosophy in OpenGL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrate various rendering techniques into a single application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFind out how to develop Vulkan applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImplement a physically based rendering pipeline from scratch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrate a physics library with your rendering engine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eWho this book is for\u003cp\u003eThis book is for 3D graphics developers who are familiar with the mathematical fundamentals of 3D rendering and want to gain expertise in writing fast rendering engines with advanced techniques using C++ libraries and APIs.
