webgl-fft-ocean

Webgl Ocean based on Tessendorf paper. Implementation of Phillips spectrum and its inverse FFT.

The grid used is a projected grid from screenspace to worldspace. The static, dynamic Phillips spectrum and the inverse FFT of it is displayed on the left panel.

To run the program:

• pnpm i
• pnpm run dev

Commands:

• W: toggle wireframe
• Left, right, up, down arrow: displacement given a direction
• s,x: pitch,
• a,z : up, down

Small program written in typescript. It displays a wave constructed by the inverse FFT of the Phillips spectrum.

Further work:

• The sun is missing, should be added in the skybox shader
• Better and more realistic scattering should be implemented
• better UX
• remove symmetry on the ocean by blending it with perlin noise
• port the FFT on the GPU:
• IDFT Ocean spectrum (Tessendorf) at https://www.shadertoy.com/view/wt2yRd
• Ocean surface: Fourier at https://www.shadertoy.com/view/tdSfWG
