# Particle Vector Field

### Dynamic manipulation of particle trajectories through complex mathematical vector field integration.

**Simulating dynamic, organic motion fields on the GPU defines the core particle mechanics of SCORE XR.** By integrating mathematical vector fields directly in parallel shading passes, the engine guides thousands of particles along complex trajectories. This method computes velocity vector offsets on the fly, producing lifelike movements for wind currents, gravitational fields, and force fields.

**GPGPU Vector Fields**

Processes vector velocity calculations entirely in screen-space shader passes for over 16,000 particles. By linking with our unified selection system, the vector field integrates interactive forces from up to 1024 concurrent pointer, touch, or VR controller ray signals compiled in a GPU data texture. Shaders sample these inputs dynamically to inject localized attraction, repulsion, or curl noise turbulence on the fly.

**Curl Noise Turbulence**

Applies three-dimensional curl noise functions procedurally to ensure divergence-free fluid-like turbulence, making particles swirl naturally around obstacles.

**Age Tracking & Respawning**

Tracks particle lifetimes dynamically inside texture channels, automatically recycling dead particles back to their original coordinates once their lifecycle ends.

**From magnetic field lines to ambient dust particles,** vector field simulation brings dynamic force to life. STD.DEV optimizes these GPU pipelines to enable rich visual turbulence at native frame rates in modern web browsers.
