In computer graphics, relief mapping is a texture mapping technique first introduced in 2000 [1] used to render the surface details of three-dimensional objects accurately and efficiently. [2] It can produce accurate depictions of self-occlusion, self-shadowing, and parallax. [3] It is a form of short-distance ray tracing done in a pixel shader.
In computer graphics, cube mapping is a method of environment mapping that uses the six faces of a cube as the map shape. The environment is projected onto the sides of a cube and stored as six square textures, or unfolded into six regions of a single texture.

Bitmap textures are digital images that represent surfaces, materials, patterns, or pictures. These textures are created by artists or designers using bitmap editor software such as Adobe Photoshop [ 1] or GIMP, [ 2] or simply by scanning an image and, if necessary, retouching it on a personal computer . Bitmap images are made up of tiny dots ...
