  2. Rendering (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_(computer_graphics)

    Rendering or image synthesis is the process of generating a photorealistic or non-photorealistic image from a 2D or 3D model by means of a computer program. [citation needed] The resulting image is referred to as a rendering. Multiple models can be defined in a scene file containing objects in a strictly defined language or data structure.

  3. 3D rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_rendering

    Rendering methods. A photorealistic 3D render of 6 computer fans using radiosity rendering, DOF and procedural materials. Rendering is the final process of creating the actual 2D image or animation from the prepared scene. This can be compared to taking a photo or filming the scene after the setup is finished in real life. [1]

  4. Architectural rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_rendering

    Architectural rendering of the Canada Permanent Trust Building, Toronto, Canada. Architectural rendering, architectural illustration, or architectural visualization (often abbreviated to archviz or ArchViz) is the art of creating three-dimensional images or animations showing the attributes of a proposed architectural design.

  5. Computer-generated imagery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-generated_imagery

    Volume rendering. v. t. e. Computer-generated imagery (CGI) is a specific-technology or application of computer graphics for creating or improving images in art, printed media, simulators, videos and video games. These images are either static (i.e. still images) or dynamic (i.e. moving images). CGI both refers to 2D computer graphics and (more ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. 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 ...

    Geometry that can be drawn by a rasterizer or graphics processing unit, connecting vertices, e.g. points, lines, triangles, quadrilaterals. Rendering resources. Data managed by a graphics API, typically held in device memory, including vertex buffers, index buffers, texture maps and framebuffers. Repeating texture.

  9. Graphics pipeline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_pipeline

    Graphics pipeline. The computer graphics pipeline, also known as the rendering pipeline, or graphics pipeline, is a framework within computer graphics that outlines the necessary procedures for transforming a three-dimensional (3D) scene into a two-dimensional (2D) representation on a screen. [1] Once a 3D model is generated, the graphics ...
