Primary LanguageC#MIT LicenseMIT

BuddhabrotCL

  • Multicore OpenCL rendering with fast Metropolis-Hastings kernel.
  • Tested on Intel OpenCL 1.2, NVidia OpenCL 1.2 CUDA 8.
  • Open source kernels: buddhabrot, anti-brot, mandelbrot, julia, newton, kaliset. You can write your own and run it.
  • Rendering huge images, up to 120Mpx, about 11000x11000px image size.
  • A lot of parameters.
  • Selectable regions and zoom.
  • RNG inside OpenCL kernel. Tausworthe random number generator by L'Ecuyer.
  • HDR image filters: linear, sqrt, log, ln, exp.
  • Image tint, exposure, visual parameters.
  • Interpolation of the orbits (just for fun in early versions <= 1.8.4): linear, cosine, bicubic.
