Papervision SSAO preview

This movie requires Flash Player 9

This is an early preview of my Screen Space Ambient Occlusion implementation in Papervision. To achieve this I am using a custom material that renders the scene as an 11bit depth buffer. I am then using Pixel Bender to interpret the depth buffer and filter using my SSAO implementation. More examples, code and a better optimized PB kernel to come next week.

    Very cool!
    Have been attempting the same thing, but failed thus far.

    Can’t wait for next week :-)
