OPPO announced that it has officially joined the Open 3D Foundation (O3DF), part of the nonprofit Linux Foundation, as a Premier member. With the help of O3DF, OPPO will contribute to the development and adaptation of 3D graphics technology for smartphones and also improve 3D graphics performance on them by working with other industry leaders.
For the uninitiated, The O3DF was founded in 2021 to foster developer cooperation and resource pooling by funding open-source projects in 3D graphics, rendering, and game development. The O3DF is supported by over 25 top technological companies, including Adobe, Amazon Web Services, Intel, and Microsoft.
As part of its commitment to the O3DF, OPPO will actively participate in the foundation’s Governing Board and Technical Advisory Committee. The Chinese tech giant will also contribute to the effort of forming a working group specializing in the adaption and development of the O3DE (Open 3D Engine) on mobile devices.
OPPO previously unveiled the ColorOS Ray Tracing 3D Wallpaper at GDC in March, bringing interactive ray tracing to smartphones. It enables users to watch virtual light interact in real-time with virtual settings to create shadows, reflections, and other light effects.
“Today, 3D graphics technology has become an essential element of modern society, with application domains ranging from visual effects, gaming, and medical imaging to next-generation content like Metaverse,” said Hansen Hong, Director of OPPO Software Technology Planning.
“We are excited to join the Open 3D Foundation as a Premier member at the early stage of its development. Through our collaboration within the Foundation, we are eager to contribute to the Open 3D Engine with mobile platforms as our focus,” Hong added.
