  2. Isometric video game graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_video_game_graphics

    Isometric video game graphics are graphics employed in video games and pixel art that use a parallel projection, but which angle the viewpoint to reveal facets of the environment that would otherwise not be visible from a top-down perspective or side view, thereby producing a three-dimensional (3D) effect.

  3. Polygonal modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygonal_modeling

    In this method, the user creates a 2D shape which traces the outline of an object from a photograph or a drawing. [3] The user then uses a second image of the subject from a different angle and extrudes the 2D shape into 3D, again following the shape’s outline. This method is especially common for creating faces and heads.

  5. Sprite (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprite_(computer_graphics)

    In computer graphics, a sprite is a two-dimensional bitmap that is integrated into a larger scene, most often in a 2D video game.Originally, the term sprite referred to fixed-sized objects composited together, by hardware, with a background. [1]

  6. Collision detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_detection

    A hitbox is an invisible shape commonly used in video games for real-time collision detection; it is a type of bounding box. It is often a rectangle (in 2D games) or cuboid (in 3D) that is attached to and follows a point on a visible object (such as a model or a sprite). Circular or spheroidial shapes are also common, though they are still most ...

  7. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    Comparison of several types of graphical projection, including elevation and plan views. To render each such picture, a ray of sight (also called a projection line, projection ray or line of sight) towards the object is chosen, which determines on the object various points of interest (for instance, the points that are visible when looking at the object along the ray of sight); those points of ...

  8. Game theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_theory

    In project management, game theory is used to model the decision-making process of players, such as investors, project managers, contractors, sub-contractors, governments and customers. Quite often, these players have competing interests, and sometimes their interests are directly detrimental to other players, making project management ...

  9. Motion planning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_planning

    A basic motion planning problem is to compute a continuous path that connects a start configuration S and a goal configuration G, while avoiding collision with known obstacles. The robot and obstacle geometry is described in a 2D or 3D workspace, while the motion is represented as a path in (possibly higher-dimensional) configuration space.
