Nvidia RTX/Turing GPU's - multiview co-planar rendering - liquid galaxy

[Andrew Leahy]

Hi, is anyone here looking at hardware supported multiview rendering for Liquid Galaxy type displays?

Basically this is a souped up version of the Simultaneous Multi-projection that's in the newer GTX and Pascal GPU's. And with RTX/Turing now allows 4 offset views to be rendered from one engine. They call these views "non co-planar" or "canted".

"Multi-view rendering supported by NVIDIA’s Turing GPU expands on Single Pass Stereo.

• MVR now supports rendering up to 4 views in a single pass
• MVR supports different XYZW components of the vertex positions of each view
• MVR supports the ability to set other generic attributes to be view-dependant apart from vertex position

MVR enables developers to utilize and extend the Simultaneous Multi-projection algorithm to Ultra-Wide FOV headsets with canted displays using up to 4 views."
