Written by Michael Larabel in Vulkan on 5 March 2015 at 12:00 PM EST. 5 Comments

GLAVE is a debug tool that LunarG has been working on to help in debugging the new Vulkan API.

LunarG has presented on and demoed their new GLAVE tool at GDC2015. For those not in attendance, embedded below is a GLAVE demo for this debug tool to take advantage of Vulkan. With Vulkan, the debugging and validation possibilities are much greater than they were in OpenGL.
