  2. UV mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping

    The UV mapping process at its simplest requires three steps: unwrapping the mesh, creating the texture, and applying the texture to a respective face of polygon. [1] UV mapping may use repeating textures, or an injective 'unique' mapping as a prerequisite for baking.

  3. Vertex painting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_painting

    In 3D computer graphics software, vertex painting refers to interactive editing tools for modifying vertex attributes directly on a 3D polygon mesh, using painting tools similar to any digital painting application but working in a 3D viewport on a perspective view of a rotated model.

  4. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    A texture map [5] [6] is an image applied (mapped) to the surface of a shape or polygon. [7] This may be a bitmap image or a procedural texture.They may be stored in common image file formats, referenced by 3D model formats or material definitions, and assembled into resource bundles.

  5. UVW mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UVW_mapping

    UVW mapping is a mathematical technique for coordinate mapping. [1] In computer graphics , it most commonly maps an object's surface in R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} to a solid texture with UVW coordinates in R 3 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}} , in contrast to UV mapping , which maps surfaces in R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} to ...

  6. Luminous paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_paint

    Radioluminescent paint is a self-luminous paint that consists of a small amount of a radioactive isotope (radionuclide) mixed with a radioluminescent phosphor chemical. The radioisotope continually decays, emitting radiation particles which strike molecules of the phosphor, exciting them to emit visible light.

  7. Least squares conformal map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_squares_conformal_map

    A Least squares conformal map (LSCM) is a 2-D representation of a 3-D shape created using the Least Squares Conformal Mapping Method. [ circular definition ] By using the map as a guide when creating a new 2-D image, the colors of the 2-D image can be applied to the original 3-D model.

  8. Shadow mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_mapping

    The first step is to find the coordinates of the object as seen from the light, as a 3D object only uses 2D coordinates with axis X and Y to represent its geometric shape on screen, these vertex coordinates will match up with the corresponding edges of the shadow parts within the shadow map (depth map) itself. The second step is the depth test ...

  9. Reflection mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_mapping

    An environment texture mapped onto models of spoons, to give the illusion that they are reflecting the world around them. In computer graphics, reflection mapping or environment mapping [1] [2] [3] is an efficient image-based lighting technique for approximating the appearance of a reflective surface by means of a precomputed texture.
