glTF provides a web-friendly runtime format that can be used to deliver animated models. Mixamo, by Adobe, provides an easy way to get started with character animation. In this post, I’ll go through my workflow for using Mixamo and Blender to rig, animate, and export a character to glTF 2.0.
CMC Microsystems hosted Webinar - Introducing Introducing HCMP using OpenCL programming model
• Tags:
Join CMC Microsystems and AJ Guillon, chair of the Khronos OpenCL Safety Critical (SC) TSG and founder of YetiWare, on November 8th. This webinar will discuss how to reduce the gap between the application layer and the hardware layer by introducing a heterogeneous computing middleware platform (HCMP), which provides middleware that significantly reduces the complexity of developing industrial-strength heterogeneous computing software using an OpenCL programming model.

Arm releases PerfDoc v1.0
• Tags:

PerfDoc is a Vulkan layer which aims to validate applications against the Mali Application Developer Best Practices Guide. Just like the LunarG validation layers, this layer tracks your application and attempts to find API usage which is discouraged. PerfDoc focuses on checks which can be done up-front, and checks which can portably run on all platforms which support Vulkan. The intended use of PerfDoc is to be used during development to catch potential performance issues early. The layer will run on any Vulkan implementation, so Mali-related optimizations can be found even when doing bringup on desktop platforms. Just like Vulkan validation layers, errors are reported either through VK_EXT_debug_report to the application as callbacks, or via console/logcat if enabled. Dynamic checking (i.e. profiling) of how an application is behaving in run-time is not currently in the scope of PerfDoc. Some heuristics in PerfDoc are based on “arbitrary limits” in case where there is no obvious limit to use. These values can be tweaked later via config files if needed. Some checks which are CPU intensive (index scanning for example), can also be disabled by the config file. Please visit the GitHub repository for PerfDoc.
