This project is a state-of-the-art software occlusion culling system.

It's similar in spirit to Intel's https://github.com/GameTechDev/OcclusionCulling, but uses completely different techniques and is 2-3 times faster in single-threaded AVX mode when rendering the full set of occluders (no minimum size).
