  2. Unified shader model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_shader_model

    The unified shader model uses the same hardware resources for both vertex and fragment processing. In the field of 3D computer graphics, the unified shader model (known in Direct3D 10 as "Shader Model 4.0") refers to a form of shader hardware in a graphical processing unit (GPU) where all of the shader stages in the rendering pipeline (geometry, vertex, pixel, etc.) have the same capabilities.

  3. OpenGL Shading Language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenGL_Shading_Language

    The compiled programs are executed on the GPU. 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 ...

  4. Shader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shader

    Shaders are simple programs that describe the traits of either a vertex or a pixel. Vertex shaders describe the attributes (position, texture coordinates, colors, etc.) of a vertex, while pixel shaders describe the traits (color, z-depth and alpha value) of a pixel. A vertex shader is called for each vertex in a primitive (possibly after ...

  5. High-Level Shader Language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Level_Shader_Language

    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 ...

  6. Cel shading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cel_shading

    Cel-shaded rendering of two isosurfaces of the probability density of a particle in a box. The cel-shading process starts with a typical 3D model.Where cel-shading differs from conventional rendering is in its non-photorealistic shading algorithm.

  7. Physically based rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physically_based_rendering

    Physically based rendering ( PBR) is a computer graphics approach that seeks to render images in a way that models the lights and surfaces with optics in the real world. It is often referred to as "Physically Based Lighting" or "Physically Based Shading". Many PBR pipelines aim to achieve photorealism. Feasible and quick approximations of the ...

  8. Cg (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cg_(programming_language)

    Cg (short for C for Graphics) and High-Level Shader Language (HLSL) are two names given to a high-level shading language developed by Nvidia and Microsoft for programming shaders. Cg/HLSL is based on the C programming language and although they share the same core syntax, some features of C were modified and new data types were added to make Cg ...

  9. Dennis Rader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Rader

    Dennis Lynn Rader (born March 9, 1945), also known as BTK (an abbreviation he gave himself for " bind, torture, kill "), is an American serial killer who murdered at least ten people in Wichita and Park City, Kansas, between 1974 and 1991. Although Rader occasionally killed or attempted to kill men and children, he typically targeted women.
