  2. Second Life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Life

    Second Life also has its own virtual currency, the Linden Dollar (L$), which is exchangeable with real world currency. [15] [16] Second Life is intended for people ages 16 and over, with the exception of 13–15-year-old users, who are restricted to the Second Life region of a sponsoring institution (e.g., a school). [17] [18]

  3. UV mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping

    The application of a texture in the UV space related to the effect in 3D. A representation of the UV mapping of a cube. The flattened cube net may then be textured to texture the cube. UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping.

  4. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    Texture mapping maps the model surface (or screen space during rasterization) into texture space; in this space, the texture map is visible in its undistorted form. UV unwrapping tools typically provide a view in texture space for manual editing of texture coordinates.

  5. Texture synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_synthesis

    Texture synthesis is the process of algorithmically constructing a large digital image from a small digital sample image by taking advantage of its structural content. It is an object of research in computer graphics and is used in many fields, amongst others digital image editing, 3D computer graphics and post-production of films.

  6. Texture filtering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_filtering

    During the texture mapping process for any arbitrary 3D surface, a texture lookup takes place to find out where on the texture each pixel center falls. For texture-mapped polygonal surfaces composed of triangles typical of most surfaces in 3D games and movies, every pixel (or subordinate pixel sample) of that surface will be associated with some triangle(s) and a set of barycentric coordinates ...

  7. Computer-generated imagery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-generated_imagery

    A yellow submarine in Second Life Metallic balls created in Blender. A virtual world is an agent-based and simulated environment allowing users to interact with artificially animated characters (e.g software agent) or with other physical users, through the use of avatars.

  8. Level of detail (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_of_detail_(computer...

    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. [citation needed]

  9. Arts in Second Life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arts_in_Second_Life

    Arts in Second Life is an artistic area of a 3D social network (called Second Life) that has served, since 2003, as a platform for various artistic pursuits and exhibitions. Art exhibits [ edit ]
