The Math to Turn ANY Picture into 3D Cubes

We are taking a flat, lifeless photograph and exploding it into an explorable universe of 3D cubes using pure math. Forget game engines! We are building a complete rendering pipeline from absolute scratch. From camera trigonometry and perspective projection to custom rasterizers and Z-Buffers, you'll see exactly how to spawn, illuminate, and fly through thousands of depth-sorted blocks in real time.
