The vertical axes of textures and picture pixels is shown above, when sampling textures in shaders, that is from top to bottom, which is top-right corner. This is consistent with how most image file formats store pixel data, and with how most graphics APIs work (including DirectX, Vulkan, Metal, WebGPU, but not OpenGL).

This is a challenging task, even in cinematic rendering, because it is difficult to find all the paths of light that contribute meaningfully to an image. Solving this problem through brute force requires hundreds, sometimes thousands of paths per pixel, but this is far too expensive for real-time rendering.

UVs are also called texture coordinates and they let you map textures on your objects. You’re basically saying to the computer: “hey, I want this texture drawn from here to here”. If you change the UVs (or texture coordinates) of one vertex, you’re also changing the way the texture is displayed on your mesh.

Our sprite is 32x32 pixels in size, and it must be drawn at some position. Textures are simply bound to bind points starting from 0, and the bind point number is sent via attributes too. For each pixel drawn to the screen, OpenGL will interpolate the outputs that were generated from the vertex program and use them to fill the triangle.

Principle Since it’s an outer stroke, it doesn’t occupy the pixels of the original image to draw the edges. Remember the previous article, where we used the image’s Alpha to find edges, determining whether there were pixels with Alpha of 0 around the image. First, we get the uv of the surrounding pixel through the offset uv.
