Abstract

See full text

Shader manipulation via object-oriented instructions is disclosed. In various embodiments, a processor may receive object-oriented instructions. Upon receiving the object-oriented instructions, the processor may match the object-oriented instructions to uniforms of a non-object-oriented application programming interface (API) that may interface with a graphics processing unit (GPU). Further, the processor may modify the uniforms based at least in part on the received object-oriented instructions. Additionally, the processor may implements the uniforms after modification at a determined time.
