Or density fields :

Big voxels :

You can use it to rig complex animated noise :

Our method is rasterization-based and can be integrated with a typical scene graph.
Thus, it's compatible with classical rendering algorithms such as shadow maps :

Our method supports self-intersection:

Do you like voxels and implicits' representations and wish you could animate them in real-time?
Now you can!
Check out our article: "Real-time rendering of animated meshless representations" to know how: hal.science/hal-05095359
Shout out to @pacomeluton.bsky.social for this fantastic work!

Someone gamified procedural function !
You can even compare your performances to the other players :

I tried asking Dall-E to improve it and it just added some reflections here and there but the lighting model still seems off.

I wanted to test Dall-e to see what the state of the art looks like now. I got the following results.
(The prompt was: show me a picture of a mechanic fixing a Mustang)

3) Interval Shading: using Mesh Shaders to generate shading intervals for volume rendering :

Were I proposed a rasterization method for tetrahedron-based rendering

2) Procedural Phasor noise:
hal.science/hal-02118508/

Create a very controlled wave-like pattern that can be used to generate a texture for image synthesis.

It's currently implemented in Pixar's Renderman, Mari 3D, and Blender (in the Gabor texture node)

Some examples of my work you may know:
1) Ribbed support vaults for 3D printing of hollowed objects
hal.science/hal-02155929/
It creates very lightweight internal supports for 3D prints.

You may also know it as the lightning infill in Cura, or as the Ribs internal supports in IceSL
