What’s OpenGL® shading language?

The OpenGL Shading Language (GLSL) is a programming language used to manipulate 3D graphics directly within a graphics card’s GPU using OpenGL libraries. It allows for the implementation of effects like procedurally generated geometry and textures, and can efficiently implement complex functions like animations or special effects. The language mimics the syntax of C programming […]

What’s a shading coefficient?

The shading coefficient measures a glass panel’s ability to insulate against solar heat. It is affected by factors such as color, thickness, and reflectivity. A lower rating means less solar heat is transmitted. Proper measurement is important for large buildings, but some structures may desire a lower coefficient for solar heat transmission. In general, a […]
