  3. Vulkan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulkan

    Vulkan targets high-performance real-time 3D-graphics applications, such as video games and interactive media, and highly parallelized computing. Vulkan is intended to offer higher performance and more efficient CPU and GPU usage compared to the older OpenGL and Direct3D 11 APIs. It does so by providing a considerably lower-level API for the ...

  4. Metal (API) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_(API)

    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.

    Hamlet or the Last Game without MMORPG Features, Shaders and Product Placement (Russian: Гамлет, или последняя игра без MMORPG-элементов, шейдеров и рекламы, also known as Hamlet on Android and Hamlet! on iOS) is an indie adventure game based on William Shakespeare's Hamlet.

  6. 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 ...

  7. 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.

  8. 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 ...

  9. Shading language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shading_language

    DirectX High-Level Shader Language. The High-Level Shading Language (HLSL) is a C-style shader language for DirectX 9 and higher and Xbox game consoles. It is related to Nvidia's Cg, but is only supported by DirectX and Xbox. HLSL programs are compiled into bytecode equivalent of DirectX shader assembly language.
