Well well well, what do we have here? Is that... real 3D data in my 3D ggplot? 🤫

An important question from my latest blog post:
"It would be nice to have a clean, customizable environment map that gives us that pristine golden-hour light without any real-world interlopers. Is this a realistic goal–or is it just a pie in the sky dream?"

1/5‼️Gigantic new #rayverse update + blog post! Introducing {skymodelr}: render 3D scenes in #RStats with realistically-lit skies 🌇 at a given location, using just a latitude, longitude, and a time.

‼️ #rayverse package update: #rayvertex v0.14.0 released! This overhauls the toon shading algorithm to use a screen space jump fill algorithm (JFA), removing the brittle inverse mesh hack that existed up until now.

Big cool features coming to the #rayverse: it only took a half year of CRAN ping pong for 3 low level infra packages with challenging configurations and a complete internal overhaul of rayimage to support proper colorspace management, all to just set the stage for the actual cool stuff :) #RStats

5/5 Focusing back on a single lat/long, here we simulate the analemma across the day in DC (here, in 30 minute increments) to see how the shape changes position across the sky/year. Basically, visualizing a 2D projected slice of 4D time/space: that's a fun #dataviz!

1/5 Modeling the atmosphere at noon in Washington, DC for a full year in #RStats with the #rayverse and my upcoming sky modeling package. If you follow the path of the sun, you might notice that it travels in a lopsided figure eight curve. Why? What's going on here?

R console with R logo in ANSI text, with one being flipped and turned into greyscale
R array output showing four colored red/green/blue/alpha channels
‼️New #rayverse update: #rayimage v0.17.1 has been released, and with it comes some cool improvements:
* R console ANSI full-color preview if supported (Positron does on my system!)
* Pretty printing for RGBA arrays!
* Proper gamma correction tracking and EXR support

Testing the accuracy of simulating star trails with R and libopenexr, rendered in a pathtracer: lookin' pretty good so far! Differences seem to be primarily from real camera lens distortion from the wide angle lens versus a perspective camera.

Procedurally rendered location/time-accurate star trails + simulated twilight atmosphere, now with star spectral → RGB color information included! It's subtle (even exaggerated here slightly), but there. All rendered in #RStats with #rayrender

Nothing is better than relaxing on a hot summer Friday night, sipping a cold drink, and enjoying a beautiful sunset accurately rendered (as if seen from a jet airliners cruising altitude while on a red eye) in your favorite statistical programming language 🥂

Twilight! One of my favorite things is finding a methods paper (here, atmospheric rendering), implementing it, thinking to myself "It would be nice if it supported XYZ!", and finding that the paper w/ XYZ was released recently. Truly surfing the crest of human knowledge! #RStats #rayrender #rayverse

After setting up the required infrastructure on CRAN with several packages providing static libraries, I finally have some new #rayverse features on the way! Shown here: dynamic sky generation for a given lat/long and time of day, based on the Hosek-Wilkie radiance model.

Just finished this fantastic interview and tutorial on 3D mapping in #RStats with the #rayverse between @dgkeyes.com and @tterence.bsky.social (I agree--the rayverse's #1 fan!) on the @rfortherestofus.com podcast! Give it a watch/listen!

A visualisation showing the 28 visualisations I made for 2024's 30DayMapChallenge
A belated #30DayMapChallenge 2024 round-up. 30 days, 28 visualisations. First time in four years I missed not one, but two. For some reason, it was a pretty rough month. Still mostly the #rayverse and #rstats where possible.

Happy Turkey Day! I know what I'm thankful for: #RStats! The only language that allows you to generate and analyze an optimal split-plot experimental design to optimize your thanksgiving turkey recipe, and also render said turkey in 3D 😀

An image of a 3D-rendered sword with ggplot written on it
An image of a 3D-rendered surprised pig against a green background
Turns out I shared over 2 gigs (3,000+) of visualisations since 2020, which is when I really got into the #rayverse. And it all started with a ggplot sword and a spinning pig.
Talk about obsession. Too bad I don't see much improvement. I should actually learn how to make maps.

Hi all! A (re)-introduction: I'm Tyler, developer of #rayshader and the #rayverse, a collection of R packages for 3D #dataviz and #mapping.
Here's one of my greatest hits (now that Bluesky supports videos!): The Earth's submarine fiber optic cable network, visualized in #RStats with #rayrender.

1/3 ‼️Package update alert‼️Need a doomscrolling break? How about a dramatically faster version of #rayrender to clear your mind! Using the nice C/C++ features of the new @posit.co Positron IDE, rayrender is more than 40% faster than before! Less heat, less time, faster 3D data viz!

Cola fountain beverage being displaced
It’s fun how implementing displacement mapping was 99% implementing subdivision surfaces, and 1% actual displacement mapping. It’s like the person that does none of the work in the group project but presents it to the class: all the glory and none of the slog. #RStats #rayrender #rayverse #rendering
