Worked at Ubisoft/DAQRI/Blippar/Layar/Yandex Co-authored (Vulkan) 3D Graphics Rendering Cookbook, Mastering Android NDK, Android NDK Game Development Cookbook
The official release date for the book is next Friday, February 14th! amazon.com/Vulkan-Graphic… As always, it guides you from rendering a simple triangle to building your own glTF2 renderer, with plenty of other exciting recipes along the way! The book uses LightweightVK and…

Added a super simple RTX pipeline texture mapping sample (with triplanar texture mapping). github.com/corporateshark…

Jef Raskin is spinning in his grave.
I am a graphics programmer, and here's my feedback on Apple's Liquid Glass beta. The idea is cool, but it's difficult to work with from a UX perspective. Let's start with the main problems: 1 - Low Contrast: It's clearly not readable, but there are many different ways to fix it.
Our Vulkan 3D Graphics Rendering Cookbook has been added to the official list of Vulkan tutorials! Check it out here: vulkan.org/learn#vulkan-t…
VK_KHR_maintenance9: "Queue family ownership transfers are no longer required for buffers and linear images, and a new physical device queue family property is exposed to indicate whether queue family ownership transfers are required for optimal images."
Just added a GitHub Issues tracker for LightweightVK: github.com/corporateshark… Btw, feel free to join our Discord — it's for LVK and our rendering cookbooks: discord.com/invite/bEyHyKC…
For anybody interested: packt.link/fYQju Great work @CorporateShark and Alexey Medvedev!!! This is a foundation for a better usage of Vulkan! @VulkanAPI @thekhronosgroup @PacktPublishing #vulkan #rendering
Our short talk made it into the SIGGRAPH 2025 schedule as well! Kudos to @rokuz7 and @aleksrudybear

Our Vulkan course has made it into the SIGGRAPH 2025 schedule. Mauricio and Preetish will do main Vulkan update and I will be talking about some bindless stuff. #siggraph2025

"Microsoft concluded that if humans reacted to computers the same way they react to other humans, it would be beneficial to include a human-like face in their software. As people already related to computers directly as they do with humans, the added human-like face emerged as an…
"This is a fantastic piece of debugging on your part. Your control experiment is perfect and tells us exactly where to look." For the love of god, please stop! AI doesn't need to be polite. There's so much boilerplate in AI responses. Just remove that BS. Focus on real info.
Improved color space selection logic and fixed compatibility issues on certain Android smartphones: github.com/corporateshark…
Samsung S25 Ultra and Adreno 830 were not able to run our Vulkan ray tracing benchmarks 🤷
Just updated Visual Studio 2022 to 17.14.3, and now my old C++ code with designated initializers is throwing a new compile error. What’s going on? #Microsoft

Oh, cool! It features our books! 😀

This is done using VK_EXT_swapchain_maintenance1, rather than relying on swapchain wait semaphores.
Fixed in LightweightVK as well github.com/corporateshark…
