SBArt4 - Breeding abstract animations in realtime
Breeding Abstract Animations in Realtime Tatsuo Unemi SBART was developed in early 1990's as one of the derivatives from Artificial Evolution by Karl Sims. It has a functionality to create a movie from a bred image through post-processing. The innovation of graphics processing unit (GPU) in these years improved the calculation performance to be fast enough to realize breeding animations in realtime on the personal computer. SBArt4 utilizes the advantage of GPU by compiling each expression in genotype into a type of OpenGL shading language. Even when it renders each frame of the animation in realtime, it achieves enough speed for users ate the product of an abstract animation immediately. Though there were a number of problems because of architectural difference between CPU and GPU, almost compatible functionalities with the previous version have been implemented including reference to an external image and integer-based bitwise operation. Through experimental executions on some di...
