  2. Physically based rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physically_based_rendering

    Even though this is a rough, opaque surface, more than just diffuse light is reflected from the brighter side of the material, creating small highlights, because "everything is shiny" in the physically-based rendering model of the real world. Tessellation is used to generate an object mesh from a heightmap and normal map, creating greater detail.

  3. Texture splatting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_splatting

    Example of texture splatting, except an additional alphamap is applied. In computer graphics, texture splatting is a method for combining different textures.It works by applying an alphamap (also called a "weightmap" or a "splat map") to the higher levels, thereby revealing the layers underneath where the alphamap is partially or completely transparent.

    The location can be in world space, but typically it is local to a model space so that the texture moves with the model. A projector function is applied to the location to change the location from a three-element vector ( ( u , v , z ) {\displaystyle \left(u,v,z\right)} ) to a two-element ( ( x , y ) {\displaystyle \left(x,y\right)} ) vector ...

  8. Displacement mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_mapping

    Displacement mapping is an alternative computer graphics technique in contrast to bump, normal, and parallax mapping, using a texture or height map to cause an effect where the actual geometric position of points over the textured surface are displaced, often along the local surface normal, according to the value the texture function evaluates to at each point on the surface.
