  2. Blender (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blender_(software)

    Blender was initially developed as an in-house application by the Dutch animation studio NeoGeo (no relation to the video game brand), and was officially launched on January 2, 1994. [12] Version 1.00 was released in January 1995, [13] with the primary author being the company co-owner and software developer Ton Roosendaal.

  3. 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 ...

  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. Physically based rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physically_based_rendering

    Physically based rendering (PBR) is a computer graphics approach that seeks to render images in a way that models the lights and surfaces with optics in the real world. It is often referred to as "Physically Based Lighting" or "Physically Based Shading". Many PBR pipelines aim to achieve photorealism. Feasible and quick approximations of the ...

  6. 3D modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_modeling

    The 3D model can be physically created using 3D printing devices that form 2D layers of the model with three-dimensional material, one layer at a time. Without a 3D model, a 3D print is not possible. 3D modeling software is a class of 3D computer graphics software used to produce 3D models. Individual programs of this class are called modeling ...

  7. Bump mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump_mapping

    Bump mapping[1] is a texture mapping technique in computer graphics for simulating bumps and wrinkles on the surface of an object. This is achieved by perturbing the surface normals of the object and using the perturbed normal during lighting calculations. The result is an apparently bumpy surface rather than a smooth surface, although the ...

  8. Procedural texture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_texture

    In computer graphics, a procedural texture[1] is a texture created using a mathematical description (i.e. an algorithm) rather than directly stored data. The advantage of this approach is low storage cost, unlimited texture resolution and easy texture mapping. [2] These kinds of textures are often used to model surface or volumetric ...

  9. Normal mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_mapping

    Normal mapping. Normal mapping used to re-detail simplified meshes. Normal map (a) is baked from 78,642 triangle model (b) onto 768 triangle model (c). This results in a render of the 768 triangle model, (d). In 3D computer graphics, normal mapping, or Dot3 bump mapping, is a texture mapping technique used for faking the lighting of bumps and ...
