Shaders are written in OpenGL Shading Language and compiled. The compiled programs are executed on the GPU. The compiled programs are executed on the GPU. OpenGL Shading Language ( GLSL ) is a high-level shading language with a syntax based on the C programming language .
The High-Level Shader Language [1] or High-Level Shading Language [2] (HLSL) is a proprietary shading language developed by Microsoft for the Direct3D 9 API to augment the shader assembly language, and went on to become the required shading language for the unified shader model of Direct3D 10 and higher.
Shaders are most commonly used to produce lit and shadowed areas in the rendering of 3D models. Another use of shaders is for special effects, even on 2D images, (e.g., a photo from a webcam). The unaltered, unshaded image is on the left, and the same image has a shader applied on the right.
Volume shaders manipulate the color of light as it passes through a volume. They create effects such as fog. Imager shaders describe a color transformation to final pixel values. This is like an image filter, except the imager shader operates on data prior to quantization. Such data have more dynamic range and color resolution than can be ...

The unified shader model uses the same hardware resources for both vertex and fragment processing. In the field of 3D computer graphics, the unified shader model (known in Direct3D 10 as "Shader Model 4.0") refers to a form of shader hardware in a graphical processing unit (GPU) where all of the shader stages in the rendering pipeline (geometry, vertex, pixel, etc.) have the same capabilities.
