Screen Space Rendering Details

Design and implementation ideas for our screen-space rendering algorithms.

Color Buffer only

• Night vision. (simple algorithm. Game Engine Gems 2, Chapter 3).
• Luminance (Graphics Shaders, Page 203. Orange Book, Page 534)
• Brightness (Graphics Shaders, Page 233. Orange Book, Page 537)
• Contrast (Graphics Shaders, Page 234. Orange Book, Page 538)
• Hue Shifting (Graphics Shaders, Page 207)
• Edge Detection (Graphics Shaders, Page 220. Orange Book, Page 552)
• Toon Shading (Graphics Shaders, Page 223)
• Gaussian Blur (RTR, Page 468. Graphics Shaders, Page 210. Orange Book, Page 549)
• Bloom (GPU Pro, Page 551. GPU Pro 2, Page 296. RTR Page 482. Tutorial)
• Glare (Programming Vertex Geometry and Pixel Shaders, Page 399)
• Watercolor (GPU Pro, Page 557)
• 8-Bit (GPU Pro, Page 557)
• Kuwahara filter (GPU Pro, Page 247)
• Gamma Correction (RTR, Page 141)

Depth Buffer

• Depth of Field (Programming Vertex Geometry and Pixel Shaders, Page 406. GPU Gems, Chapter 23. RTR, Page 486. GPU Pro, Page 315. )
• SSAO (RTR, Page 382. Programming Vertex Geometry and Pixel Shaders, Page 79. GPU Pro, Page 215. GPU Pro 2, Page 123)
• Fog (RTR, Page 496)

Later

• Motion blur using a velocity buffer (RTR, Page 490. Programming Vertex Geometry and Pixel Shaders, Page 410).
