Introduction Recent major advance in real time graphics is programmable pipeline First introduced by NVIDIA GForce 3 Supported by high-end commodity cards NVIDIA, ATI, 3D Labs Software Support Direct X 8 , 9, 10 OpenGL Extensions OpenGL Shading Language (GLSL) Cg Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

Background Two components Vertex programs (shaders) Fragment programs (shaders) Requires detailed understanding of two seemingly contradictory apporachs OpenGL pipeline Real time RenderMan ideas offline Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

Black Box View fragments fragments vertices vertices Geometry Processor Rasterizer Fragment Processor Frame Buffer CPU Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

6 Geometric Calculations
Geometric data: set of vertices + type Can come from program, evaluator, display list type: point, line, polygon Vertex data can be (x,y,z,w) coordinates of a vertex (glVertex) Normal vector Texture Coordinates RGBA color Other data: color indices, edge flags Additional user-defined data in GLSL Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

7 Per-Vertex Operations
Vertices transformed by modelview matrix into eye coordinates Normals must be transformed with inverse transpose of modelview matrix so that v·n=v’ ·n’ for shading calculations Assumes there is no scaling May have to use autonormalization Textures coordinates are generated if autotexture enabled and texture matrix applied Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

8 Lighting Calculations
Done on a per-vertex basis using modified Phong Model Phong model Problem is the specular term Must recompute v and r at every vertex I =kd Id l · n + ks Is (v · r )a + ka Ia Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

9 Calculating the Reflection Term
angle of incidence = angle of reflection cos qi = cos qr or r·n = l·n r, n, and l are coplanar r = al + bn normalize 1 = r·r = n·n = l·l solving: r = 2(l · n)n-l Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

10 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
OpenGL Lighting Modified Phong model Halfway vector Global ambient term Specified in standard Supported by hardware Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

11 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
Halfway Vector Blinn proposed replacing v·r by n·h where h = (l+v)/|l + v| (l+v)/2 is halfway between l and v If n, l, and v are coplanar: y = f/2 Must then adjust exponent so that (n·h)e’ ≈ (r.v)e Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

12 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
Primitive Assembly Vertices are next assembled into objects Polygons Line Segements Points Transformation by projection matrix Clipping Against user defined planes View volume, x=±w, y=±w, z=±w Polygon clipping can create new vertices Perspective Division Viewport mapping Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

13 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
Rasterization Geometric entities are rasterized into fragments Each fragment corresponds to a point on an integer grid: a screen pixel Hence each fragment is a potential pixel Each fragment has A color Possibly a depth value Texture coordinates Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

14 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
Fragment Operations Texture generation Fog Antialiasing Scissoring Alpha test Blending Dithering Logical Operation Masking Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

15 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
Vertex Processor Takes in vertices Position attribute Possibly color OpenGL state Produces Position in clip coordinates Vertex color Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

16 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
Fragment Processor Takes in output of rasterizer (fragments) Vertex values have been interpolated over primitive by rasterizer Outputs a fragment Color Texture Fragments still go through fragment tests Hidden-surface removal alpha Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

17 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
Programmable Shaders Replace fixed function vertex and fragment processing by programmable processors called shaders Can replace either or both If we use a programmable shader we must do all required functions of the fixed function processor Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

RenderMan Developed by Pixar S. Upstill, The RenderMan Companion, Addison-Wesley, 1989. Model interface file (RIB) Modeler Renderer Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

20 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
Modeling vs Rendering Modeler outputs geometric model plus information for the renderer Specifications of camera Materials Lights May have different kinds of renderers Ray tracer Radiosity How do we specify a shader? Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002

21 Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
Shading Trees Shaders such as the Phong model can be written as algebraic expressions But expressions can be described by trees Need now operators such as dot and cross products and new data types such as matrices and vectors Environmental variables are part of state I =kd Id l · n + ks Is (v · r )s + ka Ia Angel: Interactive Computer Graphics 3E © Addison-Wesley 2002
