Class NVLowLatency2

java.lang.Object
org.lwjgl.vulkan.NVLowLatency2

public class NVLowLatency2 extends Object
Description

This extension gives applications timing suggestions on when to start the recording of new frames to reduce the latency between input sampling and frame presentation. Applications can accomplish this through the extension by calling SetLatencySleepModeNV to allow the driver to pace a given swapchain, then calling LatencySleepNV before input sampling to delay the start of the CPU side work. Additional methods and structures are provided to give insight into the latency pipeline of an application through the latency markers. VK_NV_low_latency provides legacy support for applications that make use of the NVIDIA Reflex SDK whereas new implementations should use the VK_NV_low_latency2 extension.
