[osg-users] How to implement a Laser Simulation?

[Chris Hanson]

So, you don't care about the line appearing interacting with the water
column, just with it interacting with the surfaces in the scene?

You could either slap a shader pass on EVERY surface in the scene that the
laser line can fall upon, OR do a second render pass (possibly reading the
Z-buffer) to apply the laser line effect.

Which of these seems more feasible to you based on the preconditions and
restrictions of your existing app and scene graph architecture?
