This book gathers all the content from the GPU Pro series (Vols 1-7; 2010-2016) into a convenient single source anthology covering rendering techniques in computer graphics. It covers ready-to-use ideas and procedures that can help solve many computer graphics programming challenges. The articles by leading programmers contained in this volume reflects the methods and techniques used to sample real-world phenomenon or to model special effects using these methods and techniques in their work.
