The OpenDLSS project says it has reproduced Nvidia's DLSS 5 neural rendering network in Vulkan, matching intermediate results at all 75 block boundaries byte for byte. Its repository also describes an independent WebGPU implementation that runs the same network in a browser without tensor cores or FP8 arithmetic.

The network generates detail and adjusts an already rendered frame at the same resolution; it does not upscale images. Users must supply model weights separately. The Vulkan implementation requires Windows and an Nvidia Ada or newer GPU with specified driver extensions. The project is unaffiliated with Nvidia and excludes its software and weights.
