KITE - Khronos Initiative for Training and Education
Tuesday, July 23 | 1:00 PM – 2:30 PM | ACC | Room TBD
More information will be posted shortly.
COLLADA BOF
Date and time to be announced | Hilton | Room TBD
The COLLADA working group looks forward to sharing exciting updates about COLLADA and glTF at SIGGRAPH 2013.
COLLADA makes it easy to transport 3D assets between applications - enabling diverse 3D authoring and content processing tools be combined into a production pipeline.
glTF, the GL Transmission Format, is the runtime asset format for the GL APIs: WebGL, OpenGL ES, and OpenGL. glTF bridges the gap between formats used by modeling tools and the GL APIs.
WebCL BOF
Wednesday, July 24 | 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM | Hilton | Room TBD
The WebCL API is currently being standardized by Khronos, which provides a JavaScript binding for the Khronos OpenCL API, to enable significant cross-platform acceleration of compute and graphics intensive Web applications. WebCL further promotes ubiquitous implementation for usages such as, augmented reality, video processing, computational photography and gaming, across heterogeneous systems, including mobile platforms. The WebCL API allows Web application developers to benefit from native acceleration of applications, through heterogeneous system parallelization.
The presentation will consist of WebCL tutorial, use cases and demos, and status update of the WebCL API standardization, implementation, applications and utilities.
The WebCL BoF outline is as follows:
- WebCL motivation, tutorial, demos and use cases
- WebCL standardization: Status and roadmap
- WebCL API: Security requirements and provisions
- WebCL Kernel Validator
- OpenCL to WebCL translator utility
- Experimental integration of WebCL prototypes into browser engines
- Questions and Answers
OpenCL BOF
Wednesday, July 24 | 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM | Hilton | Room TBD
More information will be posted shortly.
WebGL BOF
Wednesday, July 24 | 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM | Hilton | Room TBD
WebGL is a cross-platform, royalty-free web standard bringing plugin-free 3D graphics to the web, directly into the browser.
WebGL is built on the OpenGL ES API, and brings the power of GPU acceleration and GLSL shaders to web applications.
The WebGL BOF at SIGGRAPH 2013 will be composed of lightning talks, with a Q&A session with members of the working group. Come see the latest techniques and participate in the community discussion.
More details coming soon.
OpenGL ES & Mobile BOF
Wednesday, July 24 | 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM | Hilton | Room TBD
OpenGL ES is royalty-free, cross-platform API for full-function 2D and 3D graphics on embedded systems, including consoles, phones, appliances and vehicles. Attend for the latest news and updates!
OpenGL BOF
Wednesday, July 24 | 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM | Hilton | Room TBD
The OpenGL family of APIs (OpenGL, OpenGL ES, WebGL) are more relevant than ever before. Come join us this year and learn what is new and happening with OpenGL! This is also your chance to interact with some of the architects behind the OpenGL API, and meet your fellow OpenGL enthusiasts at the party immediately following.
Khronos Chapters
Thursday, July 25 | 1:00 PM – 2:30 PM | ACC | Room TBD
Get together with Khronos Chapter Leaders to hear about local meet ups and worldwide contests on Khronos APIs. Brainstorm over refreshments and help us define activities for local developer communities.
Khronos Sessions
All BOF attendees and Speakers must be registered for SIGGRAPH 2013.
Monday, July 22 | 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM | Location to be decided
This session is for educators who wish to interact with the Khronos Institute for Training and Education by sharing educational materials and advising on certification.
Khronos Booth
