Signed distance functions
Antialiasing
const float scale = 100.;
void mainImage( out vec4 fragColor, in vec2 fragCoord )
{
vec2 uv = scale * (fragCoord - .5 * iResolution.xy) / iResolution.y;
float d = sd...(uv);
vec3 col = vec3(1) * smoothstep(-0., 1.5 * scale / iResolution.y, d);
fragColor = vec4(col, 1.);
}
The point here is to convert the length returned by the distance function into a number of pixels, and then we can smooth the outline over the precise number of pixels that we want (here 1.5).
Ray marching
// http://jamie-wong.com/2016/07/15/ray-marching-signed-distance-functions/
vec3 rayDirection(float fieldOfView, vec2 size, vec2 fragCoord) {
vec2 xy = fragCoord - size / 2.;
float z = size.y / tan(radians(fieldOfView) / 2.) / 2.;
return normalize(vec3(xy, -z));
}
Note: The original rayDirection() is missing the divide by 2 when calculating z. This causes the field of view parameter to be incorrect.
// http://jamie-wong.com/2016/07/15/ray-marching-signed-distance-functions/
float castRay(const int scene, vec3 eye, vec3 dir,
float start, float end, float epsilon, int max_marching_steps,
out int material)
{
float depth = start;
for (int i = 0; i < max_marching_steps; i++) {
float d = sceneSDF(scene, eye + depth * dir, material);
if (d < epsilon)
return depth;
depth += d;
if (depth >= end)
break;
}
return end;
}
// http://iquilezles.org/www/articles/normalsSDF/normalsSDF.htm
vec3 estimateNormal( const int scene, const float epsilon, in vec3 p )
{
int m;
const vec2 k = vec2(1,-1);
return normalize( k.xyy*sceneSDF( scene, p + k.xyy*epsilon, m ) +
k.yyx*sceneSDF( scene, p + k.yyx*epsilon, m ) +
k.yxy*sceneSDF( scene, p + k.yxy*epsilon, m ) +
k.xxx*sceneSDF( scene, p + k.xxx*epsilon, m ) );
}
Matrix transformations
// https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenGL-Refpages/gl2.1/xhtml/glRotate.xml
mat4 rotate(float a, vec3 v)
{
float c = cos(a);
vec3 ci = (1. - c) * v;
vec3 s = sin(a) * v;
return mat4(
ci.x * v.x + c, ci.x * v.y + s.z, ci.x * v.z - s.y, 0,
ci.y * v.x - s.z, ci.y * v.y + c, ci.y * v.z + s.x, 0,
ci.z * v.x + s.y, ci.z * v.y - s.x, ci.z * v.z + c, 0,
0, 0, 0, 1
);
}
// https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenGL-Refpages/gl2.1/xhtml/glTranslate.xml
mat4 translate(vec3 v)
{
return mat4(
1, 0, 0, 0,
0, 1, 0, 0,
0, 0, 1, 0,
v.x, v.y, v.z, 1
);
}
Noise
// https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12964279/whats-the-origin-of-this-glsl-rand-one-liner
float rand(vec2 co)
{
return fract(sin(dot(co.xy, vec2(12.9898, 78.233))) * 43758.5453);
}
Colours
HSV
Plain HSV
// https://github.com/hughsk/glsl-hsv2rgb/blob/master/index.glsl
vec3 hsv2rgb(vec3 c) {
vec4 K = vec4(3. / 3., 2. / 3., 1. / 3., 3.);
vec3 p = abs(fract(c.xxx + K.xyz) * 6. - K.www);
return c.z * mix(K.xxx, clamp(p - K.xxx, 0.0, 1.0), c.y);
}
Smooth variant
// https://www.shadertoy.com/view/wlsSRB
vec3 hsv2rgb2(vec3 c, float k) {
vec4 K = vec4(3. / 3., 2. / 3., 1. / 3., 3.);
vec3 p = smoothstep(0. + k, 1. - k,
.5 + .5 * cos((c.xxx + K.xyz) * radians(360.)));
return c.z * mix(K.xxx, p, c.y);
}
A good value for k
is e.g. 0.07.
Gamma
- Main article: Gamma
const float gamma = 2.2;
// convert from sRGB to RGB
vec3 col = pow(col, vec3(gamma));
// blending, etc.
// gamma correction (RGB to sRGB)
col = pow(col, vec3(1. / gamma));
Ice gradient
vec3 col = smoothstep(vec3(.2, .1, .0), vec3(1.2, 1.1, 1.0), vec3(x));
