3D-Polygon Rendering System on FPGA

[nikolasku]

Hi Haruka,

Great post! I am designing an OpenGL 1.1 (lite) compliant graphics card and would like to use this car model for testing. Do you mind sending me the model? Thanks

what the hell is fpga!!!!!!

[NutsandGuts]

wikipedia is your friend!

[crazygamer896]

sure is

[embeddedboards]

WoooWW! awesome work man! :)

[morgangamer22]

COOL

UUUUAAAAA!!!!!

AMAZING!!!!!

GREAT WORK!!!!

Rendering is made on software (Nios II) or u

made the accelerator? (sorry i dont undestand japanaese)

[jguarin2002]

How does perform the system with a raytracing renderer? I guess this is pure raster..

Amazing work,Congratulations !

Just a small question, the algorithms used for rendering use floating point or fixed point math ?

[haruka282]

Thanks.

This is 12bit-fixed point at arithmetic.

Geometry operation(matrix and perspective transformation),Polygon setup and shading is all.

floating point is not used anywhere.

@haruka282 what did you used as an acceleration structure, bounding interval hierarchy (BIH) or kd-tree?

[haruka282]

This system consists of original designed renderer, and ALTERA NiosII procesor and some peripheral IP-cores.

This time, FPGA device uses ALTERA Cyclone(EP1C12Q240C8). The target board is 1chipMSX-kit.

Now detailed information is only Japanese.
