SuplerSplat 2.0, a open source platform built on WebGL, WebGPU, and WebXR has been released. Publish your splats to the web, create cool camera flythoughs, explore splats from the community and immerse yourself with AR and VR with the latest SuperSplat software from PlayCanvas.

DGG recently contributed a stunning Car Concept model to the glTF Sample Assets repository. The asset was started from a public domain, then was optimized and converted into a well-formed glTF asset, to showcase the potential for high graphical quality in glTF while maintaining a small download size.

In this Codeplay blog, they examine the limitations of the current SYCL images API design and demonstrate how the bindless images extension addresses these challenges. They explore the extension’s core concepts, walk through a practical example, showcase its key benefits, and discuss our plans for the future of bindless images in SYCL.

The Vulkan SC Emulation driver stack enables all developers to prototype and develop Vulkan SC applications on consumer PC hardware running Windows or Linux without needing specialized hardware and software components that are typically required to target safety-critical systems. The release of the Vulkan SC Emulation driver stack at the end of 2024 marked another milestone in the evolution of the Vulkan SC Ecosystem toolchain.

The Khronos 3D Formats Working Group is developing a new addition to the glTF ecosystem that will revolutionize how complex 3D scenes are built on the Web. While glTF, the widely-adopted asset open standard for 3D web content, typically handles one asset at a time, this addition will enable creators to efficiently combine multiple glTF assets into sophisticated scenes. The 3D Formats Working Group is still weighing whether this project will ultimately be released as a glTF extension or an entirely new format. In this blog, we discuss the “glTF External Reference Format.”

Help shape the future of the Vulkan developer ecosystem! The 2025 LunarG Ecosystem Survey is now live. A few minutes of your time will help us chart the course and set priorities for the upcoming year. Survey closes on February 19, 2025.
