DD2018: Kostas Anagnostou - Experiments in GPU occlusion culling

Reducing the amount of occluded geometry submitted to the GPU is crucial for efficient rendering. This is especially true for games with a large number of props, where the developer has no total control of the content/level design, like UGC games. This talk summarises the state of the art and describes practical approaches in GPU based occlusion culling combined with GPU driven rendering, intended for SkySaga:Infinite Isles.”
