Adrian Biagioli’s 2016 writeup introduces raymarching signed distance fields entirely in a Unity screen-space image effect on a full-screen quad - no mesh geometry per object.
Covers view-frustum ray setup, analytic SDF composition, march loops, basic lighting, and depth-buffer occlusion against traditional mesh renderers.
