Technical project

Optimized Software Rasterizer

CPU rasterizer optimization using pipeline improvements, eight-pixel SIMD shading, tile scheduling, and a custom thread pool.

Rasterizer benchmark media

Project overview

Focus: CPU Rendering Performance
Language: C++
Optimization: AVX SIMD / Multithreading
Result: Roughly 2-4x over baseline

Key work

Added vertex cache, pre-normalized lighting, Early-Z, backface and frustum culling.
Vectorized eight-pixel shading and lighting with AVX SIMD.
Implemented tile-based rendering through a custom thread pool and compared FPS, P99 latency, and speedup.
