  2. Procedural texture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_texture

    Solid texturing is a process where the texture generating function is evaluated over at each visible surface point of the model so the resulting material properties (like color, shininess or normal) depends only on their 3D position, not their parametrized 2D surface position like in traditional 2D texture mapping. Consequently, solid textures ...

  3. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    Texture streaming is a means of using data streams for textures, where each texture is available in two or more different resolutions, as to determine which texture should be loaded into memory and used based on draw distance from the viewer and how much memory is available for textures. Texture streaming allows a rendering engine to use low ...

  4. Texture (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_(visual_arts)

    The bumpy texture of tactile paving.. The physical texture, also known as actual texture or tactile texture, refers to the patterns of variations found on a solid surface. . These can encompass a wide range of materials, including but not limited to fur, canvas, wood grain, sand, leather, satin, eggshell, matte, or smooth surfaces like metal or g

  5. Image texture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_texture

    Artificial texture example. Natural texture example. An image texture is the small-scale structure perceived on an image, based on the spatial arrangement of color or intensities. [1] It can be quantified by a set of metrics calculated in image processing. Image texture metrics give us information about the whole image or selected regions. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_illustration

    Illustration from the book Histoire naturelle by Louis Renard, published in Amsterdam in 1754.. Biological illustration is the use of technical illustration to visually communicate the structure and specific details of biological subjects of study.

  7. Constructive solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructive_solid_geometry

    Constructive solid geometry (CSG; formerly called computational binary solid geometry) is a technique used in solid modeling. Constructive solid geometry allows a modeler to create a complex surface or object by using Boolean operators to combine simpler objects, [ 1 ] potentially generating visually complex objects by combining a few primitive ...

  8. Polygonal modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygonal_modeling

    The basic object used in mesh modeling is a vertex, a point in three-dimensional space.Two vertices connected by a straight line become an edge.Three vertices, connected to each other by three edges, define a triangle, which is the simplest polygon in Euclidean space.

  9. Solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_geometry

    A solid figure is the region of 3D space bounded by a two-dimensional closed surface; for example, a solid ball consists of a sphere and its interior. Solid geometry deals with the measurements of volumes of various solids, including pyramids , prisms (and other polyhedrons ), cubes , cylinders , cones (and truncated cones ).
