  2. 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.

  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. Blender (software) - Wikipedia

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

    Blender is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software tool set that runs on Windows, MacOS, BSD, Haiku, and Linux. It is used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3D-printed models, motion graphics, interactive 3D applications, virtual reality, and, formerly, video games.

  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. 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 ...

  7. Anisotropic filtering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisotropic_filtering

    Anisotropic filtering. In 3D computer graphics, anisotropic filtering (abbreviated AF) [1][2] is a method of enhancing the image quality of textures. It only applies on surfaces at oblique viewing angles to the camera and where the projection of the texture (not the polygon or other primitive on which it is rendered) appears to be non- orthogonal.

  8. Multiple Render Targets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_Render_Targets

    In the field of 3D computer graphics, Multiple Render Targets, or MRT, is a feature of modern graphics processing units (GPUs) that allows the programmable rendering pipeline to render images to multiple render target textures at once. These textures can then be used as inputs to other shaders or as texture maps applied to 3D models. Introduced ...

  9. Rendering (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

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

    A variety of rendering techniques applied to a single 3D scene An image created by using POV-Ray 3.6. 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.
