A GPU SVO Builder using the rasterization pipeline, an efficient SVO ray marcher and a simple SVO path tracer.
If you want an OpenGL version, checkOpenGL branch.

The new Vulkan version is much faster than the old OpenGL version, given the comparison below:

In addition, the new Vulkan version has some advanced features such as asynchronous model loading and asynchronous path tracing.

• Allow window resizing
• Test queue ownership transfer
• Environment map

• Voxel editor ?
• Gradient-domain path tracing ?
• Build SVO contours ?
