Infinite Shadow Volumes Demo

[Gutspiller]

Using existing techniques, it can be quite difficult to render stenciled shadow volumes in a robust and artifact-free manner. The problem arises from the need to cap infinite shadow volumes at the near or far clipping plane. This paper describes a robust, artifact-free method of rendering stenciled shadow volumes that eliminates the problem of shadow volume capping. Further, the described technique works for all existing stencil capable hardware.
