OpenGL layered rendering with multiple additional clip planes per view
I want to render a scene from multiple positions and orientations. I think the geometry shader is a good choice to not use the Vertex and tessellation shaders for each camera position again. So I want ...

How to interpolate vertices when clipping?
When we clip in homogeneous clip space, we have to generate a new vertex located at the intersection between the edge and the clip plane. We thus have to interpolate the $(x , y, z , w)$ position of ...

What are the outcodes that would be assigned to these points?
In Cohen-Sutherland clipping, it assigns outcodes to the points on lines that are drawn to specify their orientation relative to the clipping window.
In the diagram below, I'm confused on what ...

Why do GPUs divide clip space Z by W, for position?
Background:
I found that it is very easy to use a linear depth buffer, using only a slight modification to the canonical vertex transformation. The simplest method is found at the bottom of https://...

How to do clipping in 3D?
I have a list of vertices, I want to clip these inside the view frustum.
Here's what I am planning to do :
First I will loop through my list and check vertex $v$ for $|v.x| \le |v.w|$, $|v.y| \le |...
