News : Splatfacto Released and nerfstudio 1.0 was released.

About NeRF !
A neural radiance field (NeRF) is a fully-connected neural network that can generate novel views of complex 3D scenes, based on a partial set of 2D images. It is trained to use a rendering loss to reproduce input views of a scene.
This can be found on this webpage.

Vulkan is HARD !

Vulkan is a modern cross-platform 3D graphics API designed to minimize abstraction between device graphics hardware and your game. Vulkan is the primary low-level graphics API on Android, replacing OpenGL ES. OpenGL ES is still supported on Android, but is no longer under active feature development.

News : WebGL implementation repo and theory of 3D Gaussian Splatting ...

This is a WebGL implementation of a real-time renderer for 3D Gaussian Splatting for Real-Time Radiance Field Rendering, a recently developed technique for taking a set of pictures and generating a photorealistic navigable 3D scene out of it. As it is essentially an extension of rendering point clouds, rendering scenes generated with this technique can be done very efficiently on ordinary graphics hardware- unlike prior comparable techniques such as NeRFs.
You can see the examples from the theory paper can be found on example section from antimatter15 GitHub repo splat.

Shader Editor - example 005.

Today I posted on my instagram three shaders created to be used as phone wallpapers using the Shader Editor Android software option.
Somewhere in my posts I specified that this android application allows you to create shaders and then you can add them as dynamic wallpaper on phone.
The three source codes are open-source and you can test and use them with the android application and they will run very well as wallpapers:
This is a shader that I like as a design because it is relaxing and I put a more feminine color because spring is coming.
#ifdef GL_ES
precision highp float;
#endif

#extension GL_OES_standard_derivatives : enable

uniform float time;
uniform vec2 resolution;


void main( void ) {
vec2 uv = 0.5-(gl_FragCoord.xy - resolution * 0.15) / max(resolution.x, resolution.y) * 5.0;
uv *= 1.0;

float e = 0.0;
for (float i=3.0;i<=16.0;i+=1.0) {
e += 0.081/abs( (i/11.) +sin((time/1.20) + 0.18*i*(uv.y) *( cos(i/2.10 + (time / 11.0) - uv.y*.4) ) ) + 2.5*uv.x);
gl_FragColor = vec4( vec3(e/1.6, e/18.6, e/1.6), 1.0);

}

}
This is a dynamic sin cos combination
#ifdef GL_FRAGMENT_PRECISION_HIGH

// float color = 0.0;

float sx =cos(0.123*time)*(p.x)*sin(7.6*p.x-0.5*time);
float dy =1.1/(1000.*abs(p.y-sx));

float dy3 =(150.*abs(p.y-dy));

gl_FragColor = vec4( vec3( .01, dy*dy3 ,dy2*.1),4);

}
This shader has a darker style:

    vec3 q = p * 4.0 + time;
    return length(p+vec3(sin(time * 0.17))) * log(length(p) + 0.10) + sin(q.x + sin(q.z + sin(q.y))) * 1.8;
}

void main() {
    vec2 a = gl_FragCoord.xy / resolution.y - vec2(0.5, 0.5);
    vec3 cl = vec3(0.0);
    float d =0.15;

    for (int i = 0; i <= 5; i++) {
        vec3 p = vec3(0, 0, 4.0) + normalize(vec3(a, -1.0)) * d;
        float rz = map(p);
