4. Shading
• Shading
– Shading refers to depicting depth perception in 3D
models or illustrations by varying levels of darkness.
– In computer graphics, shading refers to the process of
altering the color of an object/surface/polygon in the
3D scene, based on its angle to lights and its distance
from lights to create a photorealistic effect. Shading is
performed during the rendering process by a program
called a shader.
8. Transform and Lighting
surfaceColor = emissive + ambient + diffuse + specular
emissive = Ke
ambient = Ka x globalAmbient
diffuse = Kd x lightColor x max(N · L, 0)
specular = Ks x lightColor x facing x (max(N · H, 0)) shininess
18. Cg vs GLSL
• Advantage of Cg
– Supports both of Direct3D/OpenGL
– Supports Old VGAs(before OpenGL 2.0)
– Supports nVIDIA OpenGL Extensions
– Direct3D compatibility(HLSL and Cg, HLSL Effect and CgFX
– Possible to assembly optimization
• Advantage of GLSL
– OpenGL Standard(for OpenGL only users and new comers)
• No extra runtimes(Cg.dll, CgGL.dll, …)
• Supports OpenGL ES(Android, iOS, WebGL)

20. OpenGL Extensions
• OpenGL Extensions
– OpenGL Extensions are usually made available to access new features of 3D graphics hardware. Hardware vendors
define new functions and/or tokens that enhance the existing features of OpenGL.
• Extensions created by a single vendor are called "vendor-specific" and extensions created by several vendors are called
"multivendor" extensions.
• If a vendor-specific or multivendor extension proves to be a good enhancement, the OpenGL Architecture Review Board (ARB)
may promote it to an "ARB approved" extension.
• If the extension is very useful, the ARB may decide to integrate the extension as a "core feature" to OpenGL. This happened for
example with the OpenGL Shading Language which is now a core feature of OpenGL 2.0 and higher.
– Detecting extensions
• const GLubyte* sExtensions = glGetString(GL_EXTENSIONS);
– Naming conventions
• GL(PLATFORM)_VENDOR_extension_name
• VENDOR
– ARB Architecture Review Board approved extension
– EXT Multivendor Extension
– APPLE Extension from Apple Computer, Inc.
– ATI Extension from ATI Technologies, Inc. (AMD)
– HP Extension from Hewlett Packard.
– NV Extension from NVIDIA Corporation
– SGIS Extension from Silicon Graphics, Inc.
• PLATFORM: WGL, GLX, EGL
– GLSL required extensions
• ARB vertex shader
• ARB fragment shader
• ARB shader objects
• ARB geometry shader 4
• ARB tessellation shader
21. GLSL Versions
• Until version 3.30, the GLSL version number and the corresponding OpenGL version number
were different. Here's a table:
• Direct3D Shader Model 4.0 is equivalent to GLSL version 3.30. Earlier GLSL versions for
OpenGL 3.x provide subsets of this functionality, based on the available functionality in the
OpenGL version, though 1.50 is almost feature-identical to SM4
• Direct3D Shader Model 5.0 is equivalent to GLSL version 4.30.
• http://www.opengl.org/wiki/Detecting_the_Shader_Model
OpenGL Version GLSL Version
2.0 1.10
2.1 1.20
3.0 1.30
3.1 1.40
3.2 1.50
22. Shader Model(SM) Numbers
• ARB Assembly Language
• These are done through testing the presence of extensions. You should test
them in this order:
• GL_NV_gpu_program4: SM 4.0 or better.
• GL_NV_vertex_program3: SM 3.0 or better.
• GL_ARB_fragment_program: SM 2.0 or better.
• ATI does not support higher than SM 2.0 functionality in assembly shaders.
• http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-
us/library/windows/desktop/bb509626(v=vs.85).aspx
(Although gs_4_0, gs_4_1, ps_4_0, ps_4_1, vs_4_0, and vs_4_1 were introduced in shader model 4.0, shader
model 5 adds support to these shader profiles for structured buffers and byte address buffers.)

24. OpenGL ES Versions
Version Description
OpenGL ES 1.0
Android
Standard
• Quad and polygon rendering primitives,
• Texgen, line and polygon stipple,
• Polygon mode and antialiased polygon rendering are not supported, although rendering using multisample is still possible (rather
than alpha border fragments),
• ARB_Image pixel class operation are not supported, nor are bitmaps or 3D textures,
• Several of the more technical drawing modes are eliminated, including frontbuffer and accumulation buffer. Bitmap operations,
specifically copying pixels (individually) is not allowed, nor are evaluators, nor (user) selection operations,
• Display lists and feedback are removed, as are push and pop operations for state attributes,
• Some material parameters were removed, including back-face parameters and user defined clip planes.
OpenGL ES 1.1
Android 1.6
• Better multitexture support (including combiners and dot product texture operations)
• Automatic mipmap generation
• Vertex buffer objects
• State queries
• User clip planes
• Greater control over point rendering
OpenGL ES 2.0
Android
2.0(NDK), 2.2
• Eliminates most of the fixed-function rendering pipeline in favor of a programmable one in a move similar to transition from OpenGL
3.0 to 3.1.
• Almost all rendering features of the transform and lighting stage, such as the specification of materials and light parameters formerly
specified by the fixed-function API, are replaced by shaders written by the graphics programmer.
• As a result, OpenGL ES 2.0 is not backward compatible with OpenGL ES 1.1.
OpenGL ES 3.0
Android 4.3
Samsung
S4(Snapdragon
)/Nexus5,
7(2013)/LG G2
OpenGL ES 3.0 is backwards compatible with OpenGL ES 2.0, enabling applications to incrementally add new visual features to
applications. OpenGL 4.3 provides full compatibility with OpenGL ES 3.0.
• Multiple enhancements to the rendering pipeline to enable acceleration of advanced visual effects including: occlusion queries,
transform feedback, instanced rendering and support for four or more rendering targets
• High quality ETC2 / EAC texture compression as a standard feature, eliminating the need for a different set of textures for each
platform
• A new version of the GLSL ES shading language[8] with full support for integer and 32-bit floating point operations
• Greatly enhanced texturing functionality including guaranteed support for floating point textures, 3D textures, depth textures, vertex
textures, NPOT textures, R/RG textures, immutable textures, 2D array textures, swizzles, LOD and mip level clamps, seamless cube
maps and sampler objects
• An extensive set of required, explicitly sized texture and render-buffer formats, reducing implementation variability and making it
much easier to write portable applications
25. WebGL
• WebGL
– WebGL is based on OpenGL ES 2.0 and provides
an API for 3D graphics.
– Like OpenGL ES 2.0, WebGL does not have the
fixed-function APIs introduced in OpenGL 1.0 and
deprecated in OpenGL 3.0.
• Strictly speaking, WebGL is a dialect of OpenGL ES 2.0
– http://learningwebgl.com/lessons/
26. GLSL – Simple Example
ftransform() is used for fixed function pipeline.
29. GLSL keywords – attribute, uniform,
varying
• (Vertex) Attribute
– Vertex attributes are used to communicate from outside to the vertex shader.
• Unlike uniform variables, values are provided per vertex (and not globally for all vertices).
• There are built-in vertex attributes like the normal or the position, or you can specify
your own vertex attribute like a tangent or another custom value.
• Attributes can't be defined in the fragment shader.
• Uniform
– Uniform variables are used to communicate with your vertex or fragment
shader from "outside". In your shader you use the uniform qualifier to declare
the variable
• Uniform variables are read-only and have the same value among all processed vertices.
You can only change them within your C++ program.
• Varying
– Varying variables provide an interface between Vertex and Fragment Shader.
• Vertex Shaders compute values per vertex and fragment shaders compute values per
fragment.
• If you define a varying variable in a vertex shader, its value will be interpolated
(perspective-correct) over the primitive being rendered and you can access the
interpolated value in the fragment shader.
31. Vertex Shader Example – Directional
Lighting
void main()
{
vec3 normal, lightDir, viewVector, halfVector;
vec4 diffuse, ambient, globalAmbient, specular = vec4(0.0);
float NdotL,NdotHV;
/* first transform the normal into eye space and normalize the result */
normal = normalize(gl_NormalMatrix * gl_Normal);
/* now normalize the light's direction. Note that according to the
OpenGL specification, the light is stored in eye space. Also since
we're talking about a directional light, the position field is actually
direction */
lightDir = normalize(vec3(gl_LightSource[0].position));
/* compute the cos of the angle between the normal and lights direction.
The light is directional so the direction is constant for every vertex.
Since these two are normalized the cosine is the dot product. We also
need to clamp the result to the [0,1] range. */
NdotL = max(dot(normal, lightDir), 0.0);
/* Compute the diffuse, ambient and globalAmbient terms */
diffuse = gl_FrontMaterial.diffuse * gl_LightSource[0].diffuse;
ambient = gl_FrontMaterial.ambient * gl_LightSource[0].ambient;
globalAmbient = gl_LightModel.ambient * gl_FrontMaterial.ambient;
/* compute the specular term if NdotL is larger than zero */
if (NdotL > 0.0) {
NdotHV = max(dot(normal, normalize(gl_LightSource[0].halfVector.xyz)),0.0);
specular = gl_FrontMaterial.specular * gl_LightSource[0].specular * pow(NdotHV,gl_FrontMaterial.shininess);
}
gl_FrontColor = globalAmbient + NdotL * diffuse + ambient + specular;
gl_Position = ftransform();
}
