  2. Asynchronous reprojection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_reprojection

    Basic versions of the technique are referred to as asynchronous reprojection by Google and Valve, [1] [4] while Oculus has two implementations, called asynchronous timewarp [2] and asynchronous spacewarp. Asynchronous timewarp uses the headset's rotational data to extrapolate a new rendered frame based on the last frame it received.

  3. Pre-rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-rendering

    Pre-rendered graphics are used primarily as cutscenes in modern video games, where they are also known as full motion video.The use of pre-rendered 3D computer graphics for video sequences date back to two arcade laserdisc video games introduced in late 1983: Interstellar, [2] [3] introduced by Funai at the AM Show in September, [4] and Star Rider, [5] introduced by Williams Electronics at the ...

  4. Real-time computer graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computer_graphics

    The graphics rendering pipeline ("rendering pipeline" or simply "pipeline") is the foundation of real-time graphics. [4] Its main function is to render a two-dimensional image in relation to a virtual camera, three-dimensional objects (an object that has width, length, and depth), light sources, lighting models, textures and more.

  5. Virtual reality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_reality

    Currently, standard virtual reality systems use either virtual reality headsets or multi-projected environments to generate some realistic images, sounds and other sensations that simulate a user's physical presence in a virtual environment. A person using virtual reality equipment is able to look around the artificial world, move around in it ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Previsualization

    Previsualization (also known as previsualisation, previs, previz, pre-rendering, preview or wireframe windows) is the visualizing of scenes or sequences in a movie before filming. It is a concept used in other creative arts, including animation, performing arts, video game design, and still photography.

  8. Skybox (video games) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skybox_(video_games)

    A skybox is a method of creating backgrounds to make a video game level appear larger than it really is. [1] When a skybox is used, the level is enclosed in a cuboid.The sky, distant mountains, distant buildings, and other unreachable objects are projected onto the cube's faces (using a technique called cube mapping), thus creating the illusion of distant three-dimensional surroundings.

  9. Machinima - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machinima

    Its relative simplicity over traditional frame-based animation limits control and range of expression. Its real-time nature favors speed, cost saving, and flexibility over the higher quality of pre-rendered computer animation. Virtual acting is less expensive, dangerous, and physically restricted than live action.
