  2. LightWave 3D - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LightWave_3D

    A node plug-in API was released for third party developers to add their own nodes. [15] A notable example of third-party node development is Denis Pontonnier's Additional Nodes. [16] These free nodes enable modifying images, renders, procedural textures, Hypervoxels, object motions, animation channels, and volumetric lights. Also they enable ...

  3. Physically based rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physically_based_rendering

    A diamond plate texture rendered close-up using physically based rendering principles. Microfacet abrasions cover the material, giving it a rough, realistic look even though the material is a metal. Specular highlights are high and realistically modeled at the appropriate edge of the tread using a normal map.

  4. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    Texture mapping. Mapping a two-dimensional texture onto a 3D model. 1: 3D model without textures 2: Same model with textures. Texture mapping[ 1 ][ 2 ][ 3 ] is a method for mapping a texture on a computer-generated graphic. "Texture" in this context can be high frequency detail, surface texture, or color.

  5. Normal mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_mapping

    In 3D computer graphics, normal mapping, or Dot3 bump mapping, is a texture mapping technique used for faking the lighting of bumps and dents – an implementation of bump mapping. It is used to add details without using more polygons. [1] A common use of this technique is to greatly enhance the appearance and details of a low polygon model by ...

  6. Ray tracing (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_tracing_(graphics)

    In 3D computer graphics, ray tracing is a technique for modeling light transport for use in a wide variety of rendering algorithms for generating digital images. On a spectrum of computational cost and visual fidelity, ray tracing-based rendering techniques, such as ray casting, recursive ray tracing, distribution ray tracing, photon mapping ...

  8. UV mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping

    UV mapping. The application of a texture in the UV space related to the effect in 3D. A representation of the UV mapping of a cube. The flattened cube net may then be textured to texture the cube. UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping. The letters "U" and "V" denote the axes ...

  9. Polynomial texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_texture_mapping

    Polynomial texture mapping (PTM), also known as Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI), is a technique of imaging and interactively displaying objects under varying lighting conditions to reveal surface phenomena. The data acquisition method is Single Camera Multi Light (SCML).
