ORB-28

nested binary grids shuttering on a tumbling bit-sphere

Installation


$ pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add https://shadercn.vercel.app/r/orb-28.json

import { Orb28 } from "@/components/orbs/orb-28";

<Orb28 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
`speed`	Shutter drift	`0.015` – `10`	`0.05`	`0.5`

`tilt`	Tumble tilt	`0` – `4`	`0.02`	`0.5`
`radius`	Radius	`0.1` – `3`	`0.015`	`0.9`
`gridScale`	Grid scale	`0.5` – `20`	`0.1`	`2`
`levels`	Bit depth	`4` – `20`	`1`	`12`
`lineW`	Line width	`0.5` – `15`	`0.1`	`2`
`shutter`	Shutter	`0` – `4`	`0.02`	`1`
`gain`	Line gain	`0.05` – `10`	`0.05`	`1`
`body`	Body glow	`0` – `5`	`0.03`	`1`
`rim`	Rim light	`0` – `5`	`0.03`	`0.6`
`rimPow`	Rim tightness	`0.3` – `20`	`0.1`	`3`
`contrast`	Contrast	`0.15` – `10`	`0.05`	`1`
`edge`	Edge sharpness	`0` – `1`	`0.01`	`1`
`edgeFade`	Halo falloff	`0.1` – `3`	`0.015`	`0.98`

Colours are passed through colors as hex strings.
