class simvx.graphics.renderer.ssao_pass.SSAOPass(engine: Any)

Compute-based SSAO: generates ambient occlusion from depth buffer.

Pipeline: depth -> SSAO generation (compute) -> box blur (compute) -> R8 AO texture. Operates at half resolution for performance. The blurred AO texture can be sampled in the tonemap/post-process pass to darken ambient lighting in crevices.

Kernel samples are stored in a UBO (binding 3) to stay within push constant limits.

Initialization

property ao_view: Any

Blurred AO image view for sampling in post-process.

setup(width: int, height: int, depth_view: Any, depth_image: Any = None) → None

Initialize SSAO resources: noise texture, AO images, kernel, compute pipelines.

render(cmd: Any, proj_matrix: numpy.ndarray) → None

Dispatch SSAO compute + blur. Call between HDR pass end and tonemap.

Args: cmd: Active command buffer (outside any render pass). proj_matrix: Camera projection matrix (row-major numpy, transposed for GPU).

resize(width: int, height: int, depth_view: Any, depth_image: Any = None) → None

Recreate AO images for new dimensions.

cleanup() → None

Release all GPU resources.
