Hiruki is a 3D software rasterizer, written in C++. The primary focus of this project is self-learning in the field of computer graphics and related algebra, along with creating and mantaining a comprehensive, useful library.
Hiruki uses software rendering, meaning it does not use any graphics engines nor make use of the GPU. It only uses SDL2 to manually render each pixel in the screen.
- Left-handed coordinate system.
- Perspective corrected and texture interpolation.
- Basic directional lighting (flat or Goraud).
- Basic camera system (via Up and LookAt).
- Z-buffer and backface culling.
- Full CPU rasterization that uses parallelization if wanted.
- Simple implementation, making the algorithms easy to read and understand.
- Built-in multi-textured and multi-meshed OBJ loading.
- Only compatible 3D models are OBJs.
- No alpha or transparency.
There are three examples using the library available .
- Cmake (3.20 or higher)
- SDL2 (2.30.3 or higher)
- OpenMP
- C++ 20
Hiruki is open source under the terms of the .
