class GlobalIllumination(DebugObject):
    """ This class handles the global illumination processing. To process the
    global illumination, the scene is first rasterized from 3 directions, and 
    a 3D voxel grid is created. After that, the mipmaps of the voxel grid are
    generated. The final shader then performs voxel cone tracing to compute 
    an ambient, diffuse and specular term.

    The gi is split over several frames to reduce the computation cost. Currently
    there are 5 different steps, split over 4 frames:

    Frame 1: 
        - Rasterize the scene from the x-axis

    Frame 2:
        - Rasterize the scene from the y-axis

    Frame 3: 
        - Rasterize the scene from the z-axis

    Frame 4:
        - Copy the generated temporary voxel grid into a stable voxel grid
        - Generate the mipmaps for that stable voxel grid using a gaussian filter

    In the final pass the stable voxel grid is sampled. The voxel tracing selects
    the mipmap depending on the cone size. This enables small scale details as well
    as blurry reflections and low-frequency ao / diffuse. For performance reasons,
    the final pass is executed at half window resolution and then bilateral upscaled.

class GlobalIllumination(DebugObject):

    """ This class handles the global illumination processing. To process the
    global illumination, the scene is first rasterized from 3 directions, and 
    a 3D voxel grid is created. After that, the mipmaps of the voxel grid are
    generated. The final shader then performs voxel cone tracing to compute 
    an ambient, diffuse and specular term.

    The gi is split over several frames to reduce the computation cost. Currently
    there are 5 different steps, split over 4 frames:

    Frame 1: 
        - Rasterize the scene from the x-axis

    Frame 2:
        - Rasterize the scene from the y-axis

    Frame 3: 
        - Rasterize the scene from the z-axis

    Frame 4:
        - Copy the generated temporary voxel grid into a stable voxel grid
        - Generate the mipmaps for that stable voxel grid using a gaussian filter

    In the final pass the stable voxel grid is sampled. The voxel tracing selects
    the mipmap depending on the cone size. This enables small scale details as well
    as blurry reflections and low-frequency ao / diffuse. For performance reasons,
    the final pass is executed at half window resolution and then bilateral upscaled.
