SIMDNoise
Super fast SIMD noise library for Rust. PRs welcome!
Available on crates.io .
Requires nightly until 1.27 drops
Features
- SSE2, SSE41, and AVX2 instruction sets, along with non SIMD fallback
- AVX2 version also leverages FMA3
- Runtime detection picks the best available instruction set
- Simplex noise, fractal brownian motion, turbulence, and ridge
- 2d and 3d

Get a block of noise with runtime SIMD detection
The library will, at runtime, pick the fastest available options between SSE2, SSE41, and AVX2
use simdnoise::*; // Set up noise type and parameters let noise_type = simdnoise::NoiseType::FBM { freq: 0.04, lacunarity: 0.5, gain: 2.0, octaves: 3, }; // Get a block of 2d 800x600 noise, with no scaling of resulting values // min and max values are returned so you can apply your own scaling let (an_f32_vec,min,max) = simdnoise::get_2d_noise(0.0, 800, 0.0, 600, noise_type); // Get a block of 200x200x200 3d noise let (an_f32_vec,min,max) = simdnoise::get_3d_noise(0.0, 200, 0.0, 200,0.0, 200, noise_type); // Get a block of noise scaled between -1 and 1 let an_f32_vec = simdnoise::get_2d_scaled_noise(0.0, 800, 0.0, 600, noise_type,-1.0,1.0);
Call noise functions directly
Sometimes you need something other than a block, like the points on the surface of a sphere. Sometimes you may want to use SSE41 even with AVX2 is available
// get a block of 100x100 sse41 noise, skip runtime detection let (noise,min,max) = simdnoise::sse41::get_2d_noise(0.0,100,0.0,100,noise_type); // send your own SIMD x,y values to the noise functions directly unsafe { // sse2 simplex noise let x = _mm_set1_ps(5.0); let y = _mm_set1_ps(10.0); let f : __m128 = simdnoise::sse2::simplex_2d(x,y); // avx2 turbulence let x = _mm256_set1_ps(5.0); let y = _mm256_set1_ps(10.0); let freq = _mm_256_set1_ps(1.0); let lacunarity = _mm256_set1_ps(0.5); let gain = _mm256_set1_ps(2.0); let octaves = 3; let f_turbulence : __m256 = simdnoise::avx2::turbulence_2d(x,y,freq,lacunarity,gain,octaves); }
