Cesium渲染模块之FBO与RBO
1. 引言
Cesium是一款三维地球和地图可视化开源JavaScript库,使用WebGL来进行硬件加速图形,使用时不需要任何插件支持,基于Apache2.0许可的开源程序,可以免费用于商业和非商业用途

通过阅读源码,理清代码逻辑,有助于扩展与开发,笔者主要参考了以下两个系列的文章
渲染是前端可视化的核心,本文描述Cesium渲染模块的FBO
2. WebGL中的FBO
帧缓冲对象(Frame Buffer Object)是被推荐用于将数据渲染到纹理对象的扩展,FrameBuffer就像是一个webgl显示容器一样,平时使用gl.drawArrays或者gl.drawElements都是将对象绘制在了默认的窗口中,而当指定一个FrameBuffer为当前窗口时,用这两个方法去绘制,则会将对象绘制于指定的FrameBuffer中
FBO可以理解为存放颜色对象、深度对象、模板对象的指针的容器,在FBO中可以存放纹理对象或者渲染缓冲区对象(RBO)的指针,如下图所示:
一份极简的包含FBO的WebGL绘制代码如下(完整代码见附录):
// 创建并绑定FBO
const fbo = gl.createFramebuffer();
gl.bindFramebuffer(gl.FRAMEBUFFER, fbo);
// 创建并绑定纹理对象
const texture = gl.createTexture();
gl.bindTexture(gl.TEXTURE_2D, texture);
gl.texImage2D(gl.TEXTURE_2D, 0, gl.RGB, canvas.width, canvas.height, 0, gl.RGB, gl.UNSIGNED_BYTE, null);
gl.framebufferTexture2D(gl.FRAMEBUFFER, gl.COLOR_ATTACHMENT0, gl.TEXTURE_2D, texture, 0);
// 使用FBO进行绘制(并不直接显示)
gl.useProgram(frameShaderProgram);
gl.clearColor(0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 1.0);
gl.clear(gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
gl.drawArrays(gl.TRIANGLE_STRIP, 0, 4);
// 解绑FBO
gl.bindTexture(gl.TEXTURE_2D, null);
gl.bindFramebuffer(gl.FRAMEBUFFER, null);
// 在默认窗口绘制FBO的内容
gl.useProgram(shaderProgram);
gl.bindTexture(gl.TEXTURE_2D, texture);
gl.clearColor(0.2, 0.3, 0.3, 1.0);
gl.clear(gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
gl.drawArrays(gl.TRIANGLE_STRIP, 0, 4);
上图中,绿色矩形和黑色矩形为FBO绘制的内容,笔者将其作为纹理再次绘制显示出来
FBO的使用大致为以下流程:
- 创建并绑定FBO
gl.createFramebuffer()、gl.bindFramebuffer()
- 创建并绑定纹理对象
gl.texImage2D()、gl.framebufferTexture2D()
- 使用FBO进行绘制
gl.drawArrays()
- 解绑FBO
gl.bindFramebuffer(gl.FRAMEBUFFER, null)
- 绘制或使用FBO的对象
gl.bindTexture(gl.TEXTURE_2D, texture)
创建并绑定纹理对象时,和一般的创建纹理对象相比,这里的gl.texImage2D()
并没有输入数据,除了可以使用gl.framebufferTexture2D()
绑定纹理外,还可以使用gl.bindRenderbuffer()
绑定渲染缓冲对象RBO,具体的参数可以参考:
- WebGLRenderingContext.bindRenderbuffer() - Web APIs | MDN (mozilla.org)
- WebGLRenderingContext.bindFramebuffer() - Web APIs | MDN (mozilla.org)
使用FBO绘制过后,数据保存在了FBO绑定的对象中(比如,纹理),再次使用这个对象就可以读取之前FBO绘制的结果(比如上述代码中再次使用纹理对象)
更为具体的流程与函数解释可以参考:帧缓冲 - LearnOpenGL CN (learnopengl-cn.github.io)
3. Cesium中的FBO
Cesium源码中,对FBO进行了一些封装:
function Framebuffer(options) {
// ...
this._bind();
if (defined(options.colorTextures)) {
const textures = options.colorTextures;
length = this._colorTextures.length = this._activeColorAttachments.length = textures.length;
for (i = 0; i < length; ++i) {
texture = textures[i];
attachmentEnum = this._gl.COLOR_ATTACHMENT0 + i;
attachTexture(this, attachmentEnum, texture);
this._activeColorAttachments[i] = attachmentEnum;
this._colorTextures[i] = texture;
}
}
if (defined(options.colorRenderbuffers)) {
const renderbuffers = options.colorRenderbuffers;
length = this._colorRenderbuffers.length = this._activeColorAttachments.length = renderbuffers.length;
for (i = 0; i < length; ++i) {
renderbuffer = renderbuffers[i];
attachmentEnum = this._gl.COLOR_ATTACHMENT0 + i;
attachRenderbuffer(this, attachmentEnum, renderbuffer);
this._activeColorAttachments[i] = attachmentEnum;
this._colorRenderbuffers[i] = renderbuffer;
}
}
// ...
this._unBind();
}
创建一个FBO的示例代码:
// Create a framebuffer with color and depth texture attachments.
const width = context.canvas.clientWidth;
const height = context.canvas.clientHeight;
const framebuffer = new Framebuffer({
context : context,
colorTextures : [new Texture({
context : context,
width : width,
height : height,
pixelFormat : PixelFormat.RGBA
})],
depthTexture : new Texture({
context : context,
width : width,
height : height,
pixelFormat : PixelFormat.DEPTH_COMPONENT,
pixelDatatype : PixelDatatype.UNSIGNED_SHORT
})
});
Framebuffer类还封装了以下函数:
function attachTexture(framebuffer, attachment, texture)
function attachRenderbuffer(framebuffer, attachment, renderbuffer)
Framebuffer.prototype._bind = function ()
Framebuffer.prototype._unBind = function ()
Framebuffer.prototype.bindDraw = function ()
Framebuffer.prototype.bindRead = function ()
Framebuffer.prototype._getActiveColorAttachments = function ()
Framebuffer.prototype.getColorTexture = function (index)
Framebuffer.prototype.getColorRenderbuffer = function (index)
Framebuffer.prototype.destroy = function ()
另外,还有FramebufferManager,用来管理和创建Framebuffer:
FramebufferManager.prototype.update = function(context, width, height, numSamples, pixelDatatype, pixelFormat)
FramebufferManager.prototype.getColorTexture = function (index)
FramebufferManager.prototype.setColorTexture = function (texture, index)
FramebufferManager.prototype.getColorRenderbuffer = function (index)
FramebufferManager.prototype.setColorRenderbuffer = function (renderbuffer, index)
// ...
在Cesium源码中,可以看到构建Framebuffer类主要是通过直接new Framebuffer()
,例如ComputeEngine.js
:
function createFramebuffer(context, outputTexture) {
return new Framebuffer({
context: context,
colorTextures: [outputTexture],
destroyAttachments: false,
});
}
4. Cesium中的RBO
渲染缓冲对象RBO(Renderbuffer Object)可用于存储颜色,深度或模板值,并可用作帧缓冲区对象中的颜色,深度或模板附件
和FBO相比,RBO是具有真正存储内容的缓冲区,由于渲染缓冲区对象是只写的,因此它们通常用作深度和模板附件,因为大多数时候并不需要读取它们的值,只关心深度和模板测试
由于RBO只写的特性,渲染缓冲区不能直接用作GL纹理
RBO、FBO、Texture通常一起使用进行离屏渲染(offscreen-rendering),关系图大致如下所示:
WebGL中,RBO的使用流程一般为:
// 1. 创建并绑定RBO
const renderbuffer = gl.createRenderbuffer();
gl.bindRenderbuffer(gl.RENDERBUFFER, renderbuffer);
// 2. 创建并初始化RBO数据存储
gl.renderbufferStorage(gl.RENDERBUFFER, gl.RGBA4, 256, 256);
// 3. 将RBO与FBO绑定
gl.framebufferRenderbuffer(gl.FRAMEBUFFER, gl.COLOR_ATTACHMENT0, gl.RENDERBUFFER, renderbuffer);
Cesium源码中,对RBO进行了一些封装:
function Renderbuffer(options) {
// ...
gl.bindRenderbuffer(gl.RENDERBUFFER, this._renderbuffer);
if (numSamples > 1) {
gl.renderbufferStorageMultisample(gl.RENDERBUFFER, numSamples, format, width, height);
} else {
gl.renderbufferStorage(gl.RENDERBUFFER, format, width, height);
}
gl.bindRenderbuffer(gl.RENDERBUFFER, null);
}
