Tech and scientific writing – graphics, diagram and graph creation tools
Few days ago, I asked a question on twitter: https://twitter.com/BartWronsk/status/919618905319997440 “What is industry/academic standard for diagrams in tech writing? PowerPoint/GoogleDocs diagrams? Dedicated tool like Visio/Dia? Procedural? I usually use first, but far from satisfied…For proc tried SVG,JS,Graphviz,even Mathematica, but results … Continue reading
Cull that cone! Improved cone/spotlight visibility tests for tiled and clustered lighting
In this blog post, I will present some common spotlight culling techniques and propose one small improvement that is able to correct results of cheap, tiled / clustered culling on the CPU/GPU with almost negligible ALU cost. If you know … Continue reading

Small float formats – R11G11B10F precision
While this post is not yet dithering related, it is in a way a part of my series about dithering. You can check index of all parts here or check the previous part. I will talk here about use of … Continue reading

Dithering part three – real world 2D quantization dithering
In previous two parts of this blog post mini-series I described basic uses mentioned blue noise definition, referenced/presented 2 techniques of generating blue noise and one of many general purpose high-frequency low-discrepancy sampling sequences. In this post, we will look … Continue reading

Dithering part one – simple quantization
Introduction First part of this mini-series will focus on more theoretical side of dithering -some history and applying it for 1D signals and to quantization. I will try to do some frequency analysis of errors of quantization and how dithering … Continue reading

Image dynamic range
Intro This post is a second part of my mini-series about dynamic range in games. In this part I would like to talk a bit about dynamic range, contrast/gamma and viewing conditions. You can find the other post in the series here and … Continue reading

On pursuit of (good) free mathematics toolbox
Introduction Mathematics are essential part of (almost?) any game programmers work. It was always especially important in work of graphics programmers – all this lovely linear algebra and analytic geometry! – but with more powerful hardware and more advanced GPU … Continue reading
