Draw distance requires definition because a processor having to render objects out to an infinite distance would slow down the application to an unacceptable speed. [1] As the draw distance increases, more distant polygons need to be drawn onto the screen that would regularly be clipped .
Far Lands or Bust (abbreviated FLoB) is an online video series created by Kurt J. Mac in which he plays the video game Minecraft.The series depicts his journey to the "Far Lands", a distant area of a Minecraft world in which the terrain generation does not function correctly, creating a warped landscape.
Mapping a two-dimensional texture onto a 3D model 1: 3D model without textures 2: Same model with textures. Texture mapping [1] [2] [3] is a method for mapping a texture on a computer-generated graphic. "Texture" in this context can be high frequency detail, surface texture, or color.
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.

A form of level of detail management has been applied to texture maps for years, under the name of mipmapping, also providing higher rendering quality. It is commonplace to say that "an object has been LOD-ed " when the object is simplified by the underlying LOD-ing algorithm as well as a 3D modeler manually creating LOD models.
Range imaging is the name for a collection of techniques that are used to produce a 2D image showing the distance to points in a scene from a specific point, normally associated with some type of sensor device. The resulting range image has pixel values that correspond to the distance. If the sensor that is used to produce the range image is ...
Texture gradient is carefully used in the painting Paris Street, Rainy Day by Gustave Caillebotte. [1] Texture gradient was used in a study of child psychology in 1976 [2] and studied by Sidney Weinstein in 1957. [3] In 2000, a paper about the texture gradient equation, wavelets, and shape from texture was released by Maureen Clerc and ...
Realm was mentioned in some trade press, [18] [19] including by other firms such as IBM. [20] Realm announced version 1.0 in June 2016, and released a platform for real-time two-way synchronization (beta in 2016 September, release in 2017 January), [21] and provided a Node.js SDK for server-side applications. [22] In May 2017, UWP support was ...
