This PR converts all quad rendering from
GL_TRIANGLE_FANtoGL_TRIANGLE_STRIPthroughout the Android GPU image processing library to improve rendering performance.Background
The project extensively uses
GL_TRIANGLE_FANto render full-screen quads for image processing operations. While functionally equivalent,GL_TRIANGLE_STRIPprovides better performance characteristics:Changes Made
Vertex Data Reordering
Updated vertex arrays from triangle fan order to triangle strip order:
Both create the same quad geometry covering the full screen from (-1,-1) to (1,1), but with optimized triangle strip topology.
Comprehensive Conversion
GL_TRIANGLE_FANreplaced withGL_TRIANGLE_STRIPacross 21 filesTextureRenderer.java,TextureDrawer.javaglDrawArrayscalls in all filter implementationsFiles Modified
Core Classes:

Impact
The conversion maintains full compatibility while providing performance benefits for the camera and image processing use cases this library is designed for.
