Eruptor - Vulkan PBR Renderer

A Physically Based Rendering (PBR) engine built in C++ using Vulkan.

Features

• ✅ Physically Based Rendering (PBR)
  Realistic lighting and material representation using PBR techniques.

• ✅ Deferred Rendering Pipeline
  Efficient lighting using a deferred shading setup with support for tone-mapping.

• ✅ Automatic Exposure (Eye Adaptation)
  Real-time luminance adaptation using compute shaders and the histogram-based technique.
  Adjustable via exposed parameters for controlling adaptation speed and the luminance range.

• ✅ Modern Vulkan Techniques

  • Dynamic Rendering
  • Bindless Rendering via descriptor indexing
  • Synchronization2 for explicit and flexible synchronization

• ✅ C++20 & VulkanHPP
  Type-safe and RAII-compliant Vulkan API via the Vulkan-Hpp C++ bindings.

• ✅ RAII-Oriented Design
  Every Vulkan resource is wrapped in a safe, scope-managed class to eliminate leaks and ensure correctness.

• ✅ Builder Pattern
  Resource creation and pipeline configuration are managed using clean, chainable builders for clarity and reusability.
