Welcome to the osgPPU webpage

osgPPU is a library to use with  OpenSceneGraph. It provides you with a graph based specification of a computation pipeline. An example application shows how to setup true HDR Rendering with osgPPU.

Currently the osgPPU is in Beta phase. So I would be very appreciated on every input, like: critics, corrections, patches etc.

Features

• Very usefull also for GPGPU (general purpose GPU) computations
• Supports multiple rendering targets (MRT) as output of ppu
• Supports multiple inputs to a ppu
• Supports out of the pipeline texture inputs to a ppu
• Mipmapping supported
• Use PostProcessUnitOutCapture? to capture frames in upto 4096x4096 resolution (or 8192x8192 on G80 GPUs)
• Supports Shader Model 3.0 and higher
• Example application describes how to implement HDR Rendering with osgPPU
• An example application showing Depth Of Field emulation is in development...
• An example application showing Deferred Lighting with osgPPU is in development...

In order to be able to compile the osgPPU you need latest version of  OpenSceneGraph.

Documentation

There exists a doxygen of the complete source code. You can find it  here

A first time osgPPU was presented as a part of a project at the  OpenSceneGraph BOF at Siggraph 2007 in San Diego, USA. You can download the presentation slides from  here.
