This is the repository related to the publication "Procedural Texturing of Solid Wood with Knots" (SIGGRAPH 2022). It is implemented as a shader program in PyOpenGL and GLSL.
- Python 3.8.7
- pip 20.2.3
- Packages: requirements.txt
It is recommended to use a virtual environment, for example venv.
The following command will install the packages at once.
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
After installing the necessary packages, run the program with
$ python SETUP/main.py
If everything works properly, a window with a cuboid with an animated knotted wood texture will appear, as in the image below.
The procedure is located in the fragment shader (setup/main.frag). The process is explained in the methods section of the paper (PDF). To facilitate the understanding of the code, we made some references to the paper in the comments, e.g. // PAPER Equation 5 and // PAPER Section 4.2.2.
If you experience any problems or have some suggestions for improvements, feel free to share under Issues.
