Disclaimer


This library is far from dead, but continued closed source for the time being. I will update as soon on possible on the future of this!

🚧 Albedo is a work-in-progress and might be unstable, use it at your own risks 🚧

Goals


  • Lightweight
  • Easy to use
  • Fast
  • Oriented for real-time visualization
  • As close as wgpu as possible for integration

Albedo isn't a game engine. It's designed to be a rendering framework made for real-time visualization. It's possible to use as the rendering module for a game, but that's not the use case why it was designed.

Features

GPU Raytracing

<p align="center"> <img src="https://github.com/DavidPeicho/albedo/blob/main/screenshots/damaged-helmet.gif" style="margin: auto;"></img> </p>

The albedo_rtx exposes GPU software Raytracing. You can use this crate to perform Ray-Triangle intersections.

  • CWBVH from tinybvh-rs
  • SVGF (Semi-working for now)

Lightmapper

The library comes with the albedo_lightmapper_native crate used to generate lightmaps for a mesh.

For now, the lightmapper only generate an ambient occlusion map, but it will soon generate RGB lightmaps.

Examples

GPU Picking

While picking is doable using a rasterized G-Buffer of IDs, this example shows how it can be done using the raytracing crate.
