This is a guide to producing and using 3D models of real objects and environments for Wikimedia projects. 3D models are now supported on Wikimedia Commons, derivatives from 3D models including those using photogrammetry are also useful captured as images or videos: to show objects from directions it is not possible to take a photograph.
In computer graphics, it is commonly used to create textures and 3D models. In video games, it is used to automatically create large amounts of content in a game. Depending on the implementation, advantages of procedural generation can include smaller file sizes, larger amounts of content, and randomness for less predictable gameplay.
Panda3D is a scene graph engine. [7] This means that the virtual world is initially an empty Cartesian space into which the game programmer inserts 3D models. Panda3D does not distinguish between "large" 3D models, such as the model of an entire dungeon or island, and "small" 3D models, such as a model of a table or a sword.
A 3D selfie in 1:20 scale printed by Shapeways using gypsum-based printing, created by Madurodam miniature park from 2D pictures taken at its Fantasitron photo booth 3D models are generated from 2D pictures taken at the Fantasitron 3D photo booth at Madurodam. Generating and reconstructing 3D shapes from single or multi-view depth maps or ...
Two-dimensional slice through 3D Perlin noise at z = 0. Perlin noise is a type of gradient noise developed by Ken Perlin in 1983. It has many uses, including but not limited to: procedurally generating terrain, applying pseudo-random changes to a variable, and assisting in the creation of image textures.
Example C++ code for several 1D, 2D and 3D spline interpolations (including Catmull-Rom splines). Multi-dimensional Hermite Interpolation and Approximation, Prof. Chandrajit Bajaja, Purdue University; Python library containing 3D and 4D spline interpolation methods.
A scenery generator is software used to create landscape images, 3D models, and animations. These programs often use procedural generation to generate the landscapes. If not using procedural generation to create the landscapes, then normally a 3D artist would render and create the landscapes. These programs are often used in video games or movies.
As the output of 3D scanning processes, point clouds are used for many purposes, including to create 3D computer-aided design (CAD) or geographic information systems (GIS) models for manufactured parts, for metrology and quality inspection, and for a multitude of visualizing, animating, rendering, and mass customization applications.
