Microsoft DirectX is a group of
technologies designed to make Windows-based computers an ideal platform
for running and displaying applications rich in multimedia elements such
as full-color graphics, video, 3D animation, and rich audio. DirectX
includes security and performance updates, along with many new features
across all technologies, which can be accessed by applications using the
DirectX APIs.
The latest version of the Microsoft Windows Gaming API delivers
Microsoft's powerful new High-Level Shader Language (HLSL) and features
its most-advanced suite of design tools for the development of rich
multimedia elements such as full-spectrum color graphics, video, 3-D
animation and enhanced audio capabilities.
DirectX 9.0 introduces significant improvements across its suite of
APIs. DirectSound offers new audio capabilities, DirectShow accelerates
video rendering hardware, and Direct3D enhances low-level graphics
programmability with new programmable vertex and pixel shader 2.0
models.
