function ProceduralGaborDemo(benchmark, nonsymmetric)
% ProceduralGaborDemo([benchmark=0][, nonsymmetric=0])
%
% This demo demonstrates fast drawing of Gabor patches via use procedural
% texture mapping. It only works on hardware with support for the GLSL
% shading language, vertex- and fragment-shaders.
%
% Gabors are not encoded into a texture, but instead a little algorithm - a
% procedural texture shader - is executed on the graphics processor (GPU).
% This is very fast and efficient! All parameters of the gabor patch can be
% set individually.
%
% By default - if the optional 'nonsymmetric' flag is not provided or set
% to zero - only symmetric circular gabors are drawn. If the flag is set to
% 1 then gabors with an aspect ratio ~= 1, ie., elliptical gabors, are
% drawn as well. Restricting drawing to symmetric gabors allows for an
% additional speedup in drawing (about 15% on a MacBookPro 2nd generation),
% so this may be interesting if you are in "need for speed(TM)".
%
% This demo is both, a speed benchmark, and a correctness test. If executed
% with the optional benchmark flag set to 2, it will execute a loop
% where it repeatedly draws a gabor patch both on the GPU (new style) and
% with Matlab code, then reads back and verifies the images, evaluating the
% maximum error between the old Matlab method and the new GPU method. The
% maximum error value and plotted error map are a means to assess if
% procedural shading works correctly on your setup and if the accuracy is
% sufficient for your purpose. In benchmark mode (flag set to 1), the gabor
% is drawn as fast as possible, testing the maximum rate at which your
% system can draw gabors.
%
% At a default setting of benchmark==0, it just shows nicely drawn gabor.
%
% Typical results on a MacBookPro with Radeon X1600 under OS/X 10.4.11 are:
% Accuracy: Error wrt. Matlab reference code is 0.0005536900, i.e., about
% 1 part in 2000, equivalent to a perfect display on a gfx-system with 11 bit 
% DAC resolution. Note that errors scale with spatial frequency and
% absolute magnitude, so real-world errors are usually smaller for typical
% stimuli. This is just the error, given the settings hardcoded in this script.
% Typical speed is 2800 frames per second.
%
% The error on a Radeon HD 2400 XT is 0.0000842185, i.e., about 1 part in
% 11000, equivalent to perfect display on a 13 bit DAC resolution gfx
% system.
%
% The error on a Radeon HD 5870 on OS/X 10.6 is 0.0000274425 units, about 15
% bits effective resolution, with a framerate of 8175 fps.
%
% Typical result on Intel Pentium IV, running on WindowsXP with a NVidia
% Geforce7800 and up-to-date drivers: Error is 0.0000146741 units, ie. one
% part in 68000, therefore display would be perfect even on a display device
% with 15 bit DAC's. The framerate is about 2344 frames per second.
%
% A Geforce 8800 on OS/X achieves about max error 0.0000207 units and
% a max fps of 3029 frames per second.
%
% Please note that results in performance and accuracy *will* vary,
% depending on the model of your graphics card, gfx-driver version and
% possibly operating system. For consistent results, always check before you
% measure on different setups! However, the more recent the graphics card,
% the faster and more accurate -- the latest generation of cards is
% supposed to be "just perfect" for vision research...
%
% If you want to draw many gabors per frame, you wouldn't do it like in this script,
% but use the batch-drawing version of Screen('DrawTextures', ...) instead,
% as demonstrated, e.g., in DrawingSpeedTest.m. That way you could submit
% the specs (parameters) of all gabors in one single matrix via one single
% Screen('DrawTextures'); call - this is more efficient and therefore extra
% fast!

% History:
% 11/26/2007 Written (MK).
% 01/03/2008 Fine tuning, help update, support for asymmetric gabors. (MK).
% 09/03/2010 Change 180+phase to 180-phase in 'DrawTextures', so phase
%            definition for Matlab reference code and GPU code match. (MK).
%            -> Reported by Xiangrui Li.
