  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. Metal (API) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_(API)

    Metal allows application developers to create Metal resources such as buffers, textures. Resources can be allocated on the CPU, GPU, or both and provides facilities to update and synchronize allocated resources. Metal can also enforce a resource's state during a command encoder's lifetime. [6] [7]

  4. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    Texture streaming is a means of using data streams for textures, where each texture is available in two or more different resolutions, as to determine which texture should be loaded into memory and used based on draw distance from the viewer and how much memory is available for textures. Texture streaming allows a rendering engine to use low ...

  5. Manganese nodule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manganese_nodule

    Their surface textures vary from smooth to rough. They frequently have botryoidal (mammillated or knobby) texture and vary from spherical in shape to typically oblate, sometimes prolate, or are otherwise irregular. The bottom surface, buried in sediment, is generally rougher than the top due to a different type of growth.

  6. 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.

  7. Normal mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_mapping

    A normal pointing to top right corner of the texture (1,1,0) is mapped to (255,255,128). Hence the top-right corner of an object is usually light yellow. The brightest part of a color map. A normal pointing to right of the texture (1,0,0) is mapped to (255,128,128). Hence the right edge of an object is usually light red.

  8. Shader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shader

    Modern video game development platforms such as Unity, Unreal Engine and Godot increasingly include node-based editors that can create shaders without the need for actual code; the user is instead presented with a directed graph of connected nodes that allow users to direct various textures, maps, and mathematical functions into output values ...

  9. Glossary of computer graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_computer_graphics

    Non-linear texture coordinate interpolation that takes into account perspective, eliminating distortion seen in affine texture mapping. Phong lighting A commonly used model of local illumination that computes the result as a sum of ambient, diffuse and specular elements of light. Phong shading Shading technique that uses interpolated normals.
