The layered fragment buffer (LFB) demo framework. An updated library from the original we introduced in the OpenGL Insights: Efficient Layered Fragment Buffer Techniques book chapter.
Includes factory style deep image construction, storage and access implementations, and attempts to abstract the LFB implementation in both C++ and GLSL. These include:
LFB_TYPE_Bbasic (3D array)LFB_TYPE_LLlinked listsLFB_TYPE_PLLpaged linked lists (Crassin spinlock)LFB_TYPE_Llinearized (prefix sum scan)
This project uses pyarlib for shader and GL buffer management.
The most straight forward application is order independent transparency, for which a demo application is also provided. The techniques included there are from Fast Sorting for Exact OIT of Complex Scenes.
