Goal to have USD WebAsm branch and a WebAsm build of Filament Hydra Delegate by next meeting (April 7).

  • Gain a better understanding of performance and limitations loading arbitrary assets and materials.
  • Let a larger audience see the size of changes needed to support the platform.
  • If the changes are too large for Pixar to mainline, what options are there?
  • Provide a use case for Filament that could help push HdFilament code into Google's repo.
  • Initially may be a private repo/branch not totally accessible to the world.

JavaScript bindings to USD.

  • Roman has started porting a ui-handle implementation to WebGL that would be simplified with re-use of Gf/math library.
  • What is the cost (in terms of source code) for additional bindings.

Python support via browser (ala Pyodide)?

  • Is there any gain in having existing Python scripts run in a browser?
  • May be too expensive of a runtime environment.

Plugins and external dependencies for a WebASM build:

  • http(s) ArResolver would be very useful once everything starts working.
  • OpenSubdiv is probably a good candidate for a next-step.
  • Is OpenVDB support in WebASM via NanoVDB a possibility (or useful)?
  • Qt WebASM is interesting, but a little too unstable right now.
  • No labels
