ORB-23

an ASCII glyph matrix in CRT green, wrapped on the ball

Installation


$ pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add https://shadercn.vercel.app/r/orb-23.json

import { Orb23 } from "@/components/orbs/orb-23";

<Orb23 size={280} state="idle" />

Prop	Type	Default	Description
`state`	`"idle" \| "thinking" \| "speaking"`	`"idle"`	Drive preset the orb eases toward
`size`	`number`	`280`	Rendered size in CSS pixels
`params`	`Partial<Record<string, number>>`	-	Shader param overrides, see Shader Props
`colors`	`Partial<Record<string, string>>`	-	Shader colour overrides as hex strings
`statePresets`	`Partial<Record<OrbState, Record<string, number>>>`	-	Replace the built-in per-state param presets
`stateColors`	`Partial<Record<OrbState, Record<string, string>>>`	-	Replace the built-in per-state colours
`stateVolumes`	`Partial<Record<OrbState, { input?: number; output?: number }>>`	-	Pin the drive volumes a state settles on
`volumes`	`{ input?: number; output?: number }`	-	Drive the orb directly, bypassing synthesis
`paused`	`boolean`	`false`	Freeze the frame loop
`pauseOffscreen`	`boolean`	`true`	Stop rendering while scrolled out of view
`maxDpr`	`number`	`2`	Upper bound on the device pixel ratio
`className`	`string`	-	Class on the wrapper element
`style`	`CSSProperties`	-	Inline style on the wrapper element
`ariaLabel`	`string`	-	Accessible name for the canvas

Pass any of these through params; each is a single f32 uniform read by the shader.

Param	Label	Range	Step	Default
`drift`	Drift	`0` – `10`	`0.05`	`0.55`
`scroll`	Scroll	`0` – `10`	`0.05`	`0.05`
`speed`	Pulse rate	`0.015` – `10`	`0.05`	`0.5`
`pulse`	Pulse depth	`0` – `2`	`0.01`	`0`
`spin`	Roll	`0` – `5`	`0.03`	`0.12`
`radius`	Radius	`0.15` – `3`	`0.015`	`0.9`
`cells`	Glyph grid	`16` – `120`	`2`	`40`
`scale`	Field scale	`0.3` – `10`	`0.1`	`1.6`
`density`	Glyph density	`0` – `2`	`0.01`	`0.48`
`dropout`	Dropout	`0` – `1`	`0.01`	`0.48`
`light`	Key light	`0` – `3`	`0.015`	`0.6`

`gain`	Phosphor gain	`0.05` – `5`	`0.05`	`1`
`contrast`	Contrast	`0.15` – `10`	`0.05`	`1`

Colours are passed through colors as hex strings.
