The JPEG of 3D: Bringing 3D scenes and objects into your 2D Android app with glTF

Talkat droidcon San Francisco 2018 · 2018-11-19..11-20· [webxr, android]

Facebook adds interactive 3D posts to Android and web by shipping scenes in glTF (binary .glb) and rendering them with an OpenGLES pipeline and a minimal Java renderer (source on fbsamples). 3D Photos convert depth maps to foreground/background meshes, and Draco mesh compression achieves up to 10:1 size reductions so network is the bottleneck not decode. Plans include PBR materials (Filament), GPU-friendly texture compression with client-side transcode, and per-primitive draw calls for efficient rendering.
