  2. Cube mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_mapping

    Accelerated in hardware, cube environment mapping will free up the creativity of developers to use reflections and specular lighting effects to create interesting, immersive environments.” [4] Today, cube mapping is still used in a variety of graphical applications as a favored method of environment mapping.

  3. Reflection mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_mapping

    An environment texture mapped onto models of spoons, to give the illusion that they are reflecting the world around them. In computer graphics, reflection mapping or environment mapping [1] [2] [3] is an efficient image-based lighting technique for approximating the appearance of a reflective surface by means of a precomputed texture.

  4. High-dynamic-range rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-dynamic-range_rendering

    The use of high-dynamic-range imaging (HDRI) in computer graphics was introduced by Greg Ward in 1985 with his open-source Radiance rendering and lighting simulation software which created the first file format to retain a high-dynamic-range image. HDRI languished for more than a decade, held back by limited computing power, storage, and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerkythea

    Kerkythea is a standalone rendering system that supports raytracing and Metropolis light transport, uses physically accurate materials and lighting, and is distributed as freeware.

  6. Computer graphics lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_graphics_lighting

    HDRI stands for High dynamic range image and is a 360° image that is wrapped around a 3D model as an outdoor setting and uses the sun typically as a light source in the sky. The textures from the model can reflect the direct and ambient light and colors from the HDRI. [10]

  7. High dynamic range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_dynamic_range

    Adobe Gain Map, a gain map image in a JPEG image file; [11] used by Google under the name Ultra HDR and by Samsung under the name Super HDR. [12] [10] [13] Supports gain on 1 or 3 channels. [11] The Ultra HDR and ISO 21496-1 formats are encoded simultaneously in Android 15. [9] [12] AVIF is compatible with gain maps, but currently no encoder is ...

  8. Reflection (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

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

    Environment mapping (e.g. cube mapping): a technique that has been widely used e.g. in video games, offering reflection approximation that's mostly sufficient to the eye, but lacking self-reflections and requiring pre-rendering of the environment map.

  9. Wikipedia:WikiProject Maps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Maps

    Maps are useful in presenting key facts within a geographical context and enabling a descriptive overview of a complex concept to be accessed easily and quickly. WikiProject Maps encourages the creation of free maps and their upload on Wikimedia Commons. On the project's pages can be found advice, tools, links to resources, and map conventions.
