  2. Physically based rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physically_based_rendering

    A diamond plate texture rendered close-up using physically based rendering principles. Microfacet abrasions cover the material, giving it a rough, realistic look even though the material is a metal. Specular highlights are high and realistically modeled at the appropriate edge of the tread using a normal map.

  3. Scenery generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scenery_generator

    Common techniques include Simplex noise, fractals, or the diamond-square algorithm, which can generate 2-dimensional heightmaps. A version of scenery generator can be very simplistic. Using a diamond-square algorithm with some extra steps involving fractals an algorithm for random generation of terrain can be made with only 120 lines of code.

  4. Mental Ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_ray

    An image of diamond rendered using Mental Ray in CATIA V5R19 Photo Studio. Supported geometric primitives include polygons, subdivision surfaces, and trimmed free-form surfaces such as NURBS, Bézier, and Taylor monomial. Phenomena consist of one or more shader trees . A phenomenon looks like regular shader to the user, and in fact may be a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_gallery_of...

    Scalable Vector Graphics are well suited to simple geometric images, while photographs do not fare well with vectorization due to their complexity. Note that the special characteristics of vectors allow for greater resolution example images. The other algorithms are standardized to a resolution of 160x160 and 218x80 pixels respectively.

  6. Carbonado - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonado

    Carbonado, commonly known as black diamond, is one of the toughest forms of natural diamond. It is an impure, high-density, micro-porous form of polycrystalline diamond consisting of diamond, graphite , and amorphous carbon , with minor crystalline precipitates filling pores and occasional reduced metal inclusions.

  7. Cel shading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cel_shading

    A cel shader is often used to mimic the style of a comic book or cartoon and/or give the render a characteristic paper-like texture. [1] There are similar techniques that can make an image look like a sketch , an oil painting or an ink painting .

  8. POV-Ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POV-Ray

    The Persistence of Vision Ray Tracer, most commonly acronymed as POV-Ray, is a cross-platform ray-tracing program that generates images from a text-based scene description. It was originally based on DKBTrace, written by David Kirk Buck and Aaron A. Collins for Amiga computers.

  9. Diamond-square algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond-square_algorithm

    The square step: For each diamond in the array, set the midpoint of that diamond to be the average of the four corner points plus a random value. Each random value is multiplied by a scale constant, which decreases with each iteration by a factor of 2 −h , where h is a value between 0.0 and 1.0 (lower values produce rougher terrain).
