UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping. The letters "U" and "V" denote the axes of the 2D texture because "X", "Y", and "Z" are already used to denote the axes of the 3D object in model space, while "W" (in addition to XYZ) is used in calculating quaternion rotations, a common ...
3DCoat is a commercial digital sculpting program from Pilgway designed to create free-form organic and hard surfaced 3D models, with tools which enable users to sculpt, add polygonal topology (automatically or manually), create UV maps (automatically or manually), texture the resulting models with natural painting tools, and render static images or animated "turntable" movies.
The Dymaxion map projection, also called the Fuller projection, is a kind of polyhedral map projection of the Earth's surface onto the unfolded net of an icosahedron. The resulting map is heavily interrupted in order to reduce shape and size distortion compared to other world maps , but the interruptions are chosen to lie in the ocean.
Shade 14 was released August 30, 2013. Shade 14 added 3D printing tools, Line Thickness, Line Offset, LSCM UV Mapping, Quality adjustment tools (Texture, Lighting, STL Import / Export and others. [7] Recently, Shade 15.1 was added at DAZ3D's store in its basic, standard and professional versions.
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 . History
A Least squares conformal map (LSCM) is a 2-D representation of a 3-D shape created using the Least Squares Conformal Mapping Method. [ circular definition ] By using the map as a guide when creating a new 2-D image, the colors of the 2-D image can be applied to the original 3-D model.
In cartography, a map projection is any of a broad set of transformations employed to represent the curved two-dimensional surface of a globe on a plane. [1] [2] [3] In a map projection, coordinates, often expressed as latitude and longitude, of locations from the surface of the globe are transformed to coordinates on a plane.
