Re: Fwd: WebGL Presentation

I went through the presentation in FF - nice!
Chrome tried. Safari and Opera just did text slides.  (It might have
said these were problems)
Meanwhile my Macbook Pro is now red hot. Hmmm. NRFPT.  Or maybe I'm
missing something.
Thanks Owen.
Robert

Indeed, not quite ready for prime time.  The webgl spec is a month old!

Also, as I look into more GPU facts, one is that on some machines it works poorly.  I believe, for example, on my MBA, there is a stunt where the GPU graphics memory is really part of the main RAM, thus the GPU is less efficient, .. and hotter.

But it is really surprising how fast HTML5 and WebGL are improving every day.  And believe it or not, that slide set will work on many modern phones.

My understanding of the OpenGL specs is that you don't even need a GPU to meet the spec. You only need have the functions implemented and meet some conformance tests. So you could have a pure software implementation that would be slow but could meet the spec. The original Mesa was like that. Cell phone processors have advanced to where I'm sure many cell phones will beat my old macbook on WebGL.

For what it's worth: Works for me on Chrome on Windows. My iPhone just
shows the text, a couple of images, and the movie.

More tests: My iPhone is an iPhone 3 GS. An iPad 1 and Mac Safari
5.0.5 behave the same, just text except for images and movie.

later iOS and android devices support opengl ES but not webgl in the browser.

Thanks

We downloaded it for our opengl class .. Steve G. figured out how to use it best.
