Converting arbitrary animations to a skinning representation is a tedious, time-consuming process for artists. This solution compiles Alembic geometry caches to a format suited for streaming real-time playback. The result takes full advantage of next-generation hardware with SIMD optimization and multithreading.

Recently, a system has been presented that offers real-time performance for several hundred light sources with high quality and controllable memory footprint [Olsson et al. 2014]. This talk focuses on the practical aspects of facilitating implementation of the technique for the game-development community.

[40 minute talk]
This talk demonstrates how key mobile-rendering challenges can be met efficiently by use of tile local storage - fast memory readily available in tile-based GPUs. The talk presents and compares solutions for order-independent transparency, physically based shading and lighting, and virtual texturing.
