Opengl Es 2.0 Free Download For Android

Android offers support for 2D and 3D graphics with the OpenGL ES API. OpenGL ES is just a variation of OpenGL specifically designed for embedded systems. Since Android 1.0, the OpenGL ES 1.0 and 1.1 APIs have been included. The support for OpenGL ES 2.0 started from Android 2.2. This tutorial presents the basics for working on OpenGL ES software in Android by working through a few examples. You can download the entire source code for all the demo projects in the examples.

Android OpenGL References, Versions and Device Support

The Android OpenGL ES reference has version descriptions and comparisons among OpenGL ES 1.0/1.1 and 2.0. Since these versions differ in many ways, you should make your selection based on the performance, device compatibility, coding convenience, and graphics control for your implementation.

The example code in this class uses the OpenGL ES 2.0 APIs, which is the recommended API version to use with current Android devices. For more information about versions of OpenGL ES, see the OpenGL developer guide. Note: Be careful not to mix OpenGL ES 1.x API calls with OpenGL ES 2.0 methods! The two APIs are not interchangeable and trying to.

To find out which OpenGL ES versions your current device supports, you can use the following code:

Android Classes for OpenGL GL

The two most important classes you need for OpenGL projects in Android are android.opengl.GLSurfaceView and android.opengl.GLSurfaceView.Renderer. You also must implement Renderer, an interface for the minimal required drawing methods, as follows:

GLSurfaceView is a view class which you use to draw the graphics objects. You will also need it to capture user interaction events. Now you can instantiate this view class and call setRenderer with the renderer implementation you must provide.

OpenGL Geometric Elements, Rendering Primitives and Colors

Before we move on to our first example, there are some brief descriptions that should help you understand the code better if you are an OpenGL beginner.

  • Geometric elements include points, lines, areas, and so on. For points, OpenGL uses gl.glVertexPointer to refer to the buffer for vertices contained in an array with X, Y, Z values. For lines, they are formed by connecting the indices from the vertex array. For areas, they are constructed by connecting oriented triangles. You can specify the vertex order used for the triangles with gl.glFrontFace(GL10.GL_CCW) for counter clockwise orientation or gl.glFrontFace(GL10.GL_CW) for clockwise.
  • Rendering primitives include GL_POINTS for points. GL_LINES, GL_LINE_STRIP, and GL_LINE_LOOP are available for lines. For triangles, the options are GL_TRIANGLES, GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, and GL_TRIANGLE_FAN. These can be rendered through gl.glDrawElements with their byte buffers provided.
  • Basic coloring in Open GL contains four float values ranging from 0.0 to 1.0, representing Red, Green, Blue, and Alpha (Transparency) channels through gl.glColorf. For more complex coloring, we can create an array of the four float values and use gl.glColorPointer to refer to its byte buffer.

Build Your First Basic OpenGL ES Project in Android

As mentioned before, two essential classes required by all OpenGL ES projects are android.opengl.GLSurfaceView and android.opengl.GLSurfaceView.Renderer. Therefore, the main activity containing the minimal implementation is as follows:

We will implement a Renderer interface with our own MyRenderer below. Because onSurfaceCreated, onSurfaceChanged and onTouchEvent will pretty much remain the same in other implementations, they will not be relisted later. This example basically has a list of five vertices representing a pyramid with vertex indices of 0, 1, 2, 3 at the base and 4 at the top.In setAllBuffers, each vertex component is a float value. Since a float value equals 4 bytes, byte buffer length needs to be multiplied by 4. Similarly, the border index is a short value and thus byte buffer length needs to be multiplied by 2.

Border color is set to solid green. The main code to render all the lines is:

Figure 1 shows the result, a wireframe pyramid.
