The SPIR™ Working Group has developed two new SPIR-V extensions (and corresponding Vulkan® extensions) to provide shader authors with more guarantees about the execution model of shaders. These extensions formalize behavior many authors have previously taken for granted, so that they can now be relied upon across the ecosystem.
Today we’re happy to announce the release of VK_KHR_dynamic_rendering_local_read, which adds support for local dependencies to dynamic rendering; enabling developers to fully move over to dynamic rendering as support is rolled out.
Monado is a free cross-platform, open-source AR and VR software framework that provides the fundamental building blocks required by developers and device vendors to jump-start their XR development. In 2023, Khronos issued a request for proposals to accelerate improvements and updates to the Monado project.The Monado Upgrade Project will help bolster the XR ecosystem by enhancing the general usability of Monado for XR display and companion devices while strengthening key features essential to the Khronos OpenXR Working Group.
