OpenGL Renderer

A real-time rendering demo built from scratch using OpenGL and C++.

Features

• Physically Based Rendering (PBR)
• Image-Based Lighting (IBL)
• Deferred shading
• Screen Space Ambient occlusion (SSAO)
• Sobel edge detection
• Shadow mapping
• Bloom postprocessing
• Minor features: Geometry shader, Blinn-Phong shading, Skybox, glTF model loading.
