Model Viewer & Animation System (DirectX 12 implementation)

A 3D model viewer & animation system built from scratch using DirectX 12.

This project focuses on low-level graphics programming.

• Model loading via Assimp (FBX, glTF, OBJ, etc.)
• Root signature design
• Descriptor heap management
• Shadow mapping
• Control various animation properties from ImGui
• GPU skinning (compute shader)

• Deferred rendering
• Physically Based Rendering (PBR)
• Image-Based Lighting (IBL)

A skinned animated model rendered with:

• basic lighting
• shadow mapping

• Windows 10/11
• Visual Studio 2022
• CMake
