Static grass is used in scale models and miniatures to create realistic-looking grass textures. It consists of small coloured fibres charged with static electricity , making them stand on end when sprinkled onto a surface coated with glue that then hardens, holding the fibres in place.
Bump mapping [1] is a texture mapping technique in computer graphics for simulating bumps and wrinkles on the surface of an object. This is achieved by perturbing the surface normals of the object and using the perturbed normal during lighting calculations. The result is an apparently bumpy surface rather than a smooth surface, although the ...
GRASS has been under continuous development since 1982 [3] and has involved a large number of federal US agencies, universities, and private companies. The core components of GRASS and the management of integration of efforts into its releases was originally directed by the U.S. Army - Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (USA-CERL), a branch of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, in ...
Setaria pumila is a species of grass known by many common names, including yellow foxtail, [2] yellow bristle-grass, [3] pigeon grass, and cattail grass. It is native to Europe, but it is known throughout the world as a common weed. It grows in lawns, sidewalks, roadsides, cultivated fields, and many other places. This annual grass grows 20 ...
[5] [16] The most pressing issue was the need to create a single seamless exterior for the external shell, a feat architect Norman Foster once believed to be nearly impossible. [16] While the sculpture was being constructed, public and media outlets nicknamed it "The Bean" because of its shape, a name that Kapoor described as "completely stupid ...
Developer Asobo Studio scanned the interiors and exteriors of aircraft with a 3D scanner to create their realistic looks, polished with modeling and printing. [28] Textron Aviation helped with the realism of the Cessna and Beechcraft aircraft. [29] There are realistic physics and weather systems, and utilization of real-world weather data.
Very nice, but the white space on the left is very weird - there's a kind of diagonal strip texture running through it, but only for a small part? What's going on there? Stevage 15:21, 20 June 2006 (UTC) [ reply ]
Apple Maps is a web mapping service developed by Apple Inc. As the default map system of iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and watchOS, it provides directions and estimated times of arrival for driving, walking, cycling, and public transportation navigation.
