Mesh Warp demo in Unity (PC) 1920x1080 16:9 144Hz resolution. This is not pixel shaders. I am modifying the mesh vertices in real-time, using perturbations calculated by (Unity's implementation of) Perlin noise.

52 Weeks of Sharing:

Inspired by a photographer friend, Laura Totten, who published a photo for every day of the year 2019, I am going to share a piece of graphics programming for every week of 2020! I am using the, currently unpopular, hashtag #52weeksofsharing on YouTube and Instagram. Feel free to join.

Unity's Perlin Noise:

Unity's implementation of Perlin noise appears to be a common naive implementation that is mostly likely VALUE NOISE. Perlin noise is actually a form of GRADIENT NOISE which is the interpolation of GRADIENTS (first derivative angles also measured as normals), whereas VALUE NOISE is the interpolation of VALUES (end values). Unity's implementation is a common misstep. It has strong (poor randomization detectable by human) artifacts, such as lots of zeroed out locations. In other words, it does not look good and is a misrepresentation of the quality of real Perlin noise!
