voxel study summary

voxel

basic voxel from learning

https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenGL_Programming/Glescraft_1
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenGL_Programming -> Glescraft
code: https://github.com/hlilje/dgi14-voxels

show more detailed voxel:

1. use ray tracing and volumetric rendering from a Sparse Voxel Octree
2. Isosurfaces (store voxel data, show by polygons generated by voxel)

optimize:

use worker to generate polygon:

smooth

use Marching Cubes
use Dual

chose chunk store structure:

interval tree: https://github.com/mikolalysenko/0fpsBlog/blob/master/MineBench/intervaltree.js

use svo for store chunk data?
