This video introduces the Kuesa MeshInstantiator API. It aims at making it easier for developers to leverage Qt 3D's instanced drawing. This is a feature that Qt 3D has supported for years but is often overlooked. Instanced drawing allows to efficiently draw several copies of the same base 3D mesh using a single draw call. In comparison to issuing a sequence of multiple draw calls, the benefit of that approach is less driver overhead and better scheduling of the workload on the GPU. This results in low CPU usage and efficient use of the GPU.
