This updated edition includes step-by-step instruction on modern OpenGL 4.0+ GLSL shader programming with C++, along with the theoretical foundations of 3D computer graphics. Every shader stage is explored, from the basics of modeling, textures, lighting, shadows, etc., through advanced techniques such as tessellation, noise maps, water, and stereoscopy. This new edition includes expanded coverage of camera control, refraction, and a new chapter on ray tracing with bounding volume hierarchies for complex models. The companion files include all the source code, shaders, model files, skyboxes, etc., needed to run every example in the book. FEATURES: <ul> <li>Covers modern OpenGL 4.0+ GLSL shader programming with C++, and instructions for both PC/Windows and Macintosh</li> <li>Provides complete source code for each example, fully explained along with tips for performance optimization</li> <li>Includes step-by-step instruction for using each GLSL programmable pipeline stage (vertex, tessellation, geometry, and fragment)</li> <li>Designed in a 4-color, "teach-yourself" format with numerous examples that the reader can run just as presented</li> <li>Explores practical examples for modeling, lighting, and shadows (including soft shadows), terrain, water, and 3Dmaterials such as wood and marble</li> <li>Expanded coverage of ray tracing, to include complex models and bounding volume hierarchies</li> <li>Includes companion files with source code, shaders, OBJ models, textures, skydomes, normal maps, high resolution figures, and more</li> </ul>

This new edition provides step-by-step instruction on modern 3D graphics shader programming in OpenGL, along with its theoretical foundations. It is appropriate both for computer science undergraduate graphics programming courses in degree programs that emphasize Java, and for professionals interested in mastering 3D graphics skills who prefer Java. It has been designed in a 4-color, “teach-yourself” format with numerous examples that the reader can run just as presented. New sections have been added covering soft shadows, performance optimization, Nsight debugging, as well as updated industry-standard libraries and steps for running the examples on a Macintosh. Includes companion files with all of the source code, models, textures, skyboxes and normal maps used in the book. Features: • Includes new sections on implementing soft shadows, performance optimization, and updated tools such as the JOML math library and the NVIDIA® Nsight™ debugger. • Covers modern OpenGL 4.0+ shader programming in Java/JOGL, with instructions for both PC/Windows and Macintosh. • Illustrates every technique with complete running code examples. Everything needed to install the libraries and run every example is provided and fully explained. • Includes step-by-step instruction for every GLSL programmable pipeline stage (vertex, tessellation, geometry, and fragment). • Includes companion files with code, object models, figures, and more.
