Everything about Framebuffer object
The framebuffer object (FBO) is an extension to OpenGL for flexibly rendering to off-screen buffers, including rendering to a texture buffer. It can be used to implement a large variety of image filters and post-processing effects, by rendering images to the off-screen buffer first, applying the effects, before sending them to the on-screen buffer.
