Get Consulting, Development and Training in Modern OpenGL

Many KDAB clients rely on OpenGL and OpenGL ES to achieve visually appealing, high-performance graphics and user interfaces. Even if you aren’t directly using OpenGL, various components of your application, such as HTML engines, mapping and navigation systems, rich 3D content providers, and media libraries, could be leveraging OpenGL under the hood. We have dedicated considerable resources as open-source developers to pushing the boundaries of Qt and OpenGL, maintaining a significant portion of the OpenGL integration within Qt 6, and contributing to the Qt 3D framework.

Take advantage of KDAB's expertise

• Performance optimization. Identify and fix bottlenecks in key areas, such as fragment processing workload, bandwidth capacity, CPU utilization or blocking calls, to ensure your software operates optimally.
• Debugging rendering issues and developing techniques and shaders. Debugging the intricacies of high-performance modern 3D engines and shaders to achieve the desired appearance can be difficult. KDAB can help you overcome these challenges.
• Configuring and deploying OpenGL on a wide range of embedded systems. We are used to working with different vendors and configuring Qt to work with the X11 and Wayland window system protocols.
• Workshops to share best practices, debugging, profiling and solving all manner of OpenGL related issues.
• Integrating OpenGL into applications and libraries. We have a proven track record of creating seamless integrations for cross-platform and and high performance requirements, providing easy to use, high quality APIs.
• Development of rendering frameworks, techniques and shaders for special use cases.
• Advice on hardware selection for new products.

KDAB’s experts have successfully completed many kinds of projects involving OpenGL

We have experience from many projects with the entire pipeline, including content creation, asset conditioning, application start-up, and runtime tasks for the CPU and GPU. Integrating and obtaining the best performance in such cases requires in-depth expertise and insight into the intricacies of OpenGL and its interactions with the rest of your system.

Let us help you solve the trickiest problems so you can get back to delivering your projects. We are used to tackleing specific use cases including stylized rendering effects, specific high-performance algorithms for high volumes of data or updates, and realistic Physics Based Rendering (PBR) as used in many AAA game titles.
