A heightmap created with Terragen The same heightmap converted to a 3D mesh and rendered with Anim8or. In computer graphics, a heightmap or heightfield is a raster image used mainly as Discrete Global Grid in secondary elevation modeling. Each pixel stores values, such as surface elevation data, for display in 3D computer graphics.
A common example is the Data General Nova, which was a 16-bit design that performed 16-bit math as a series of four 4-bit operations. 4-bits was the word size of a widely available single-chip ALU and thus allowed for inexpensive implementation. Using the definition being applied to the 68000, the Nova would be a 4-bit computer, or 4/16.
The Atari ST series has a digital-to-analog converter of 3-bits, eight levels per RGB channel, featuring a 9-bit RGB palette (512 colors).Depending on the (proprietary) monitor type attached, it displays one of the 320×200, 16-colors and 640×200, 4-colors modes with the color monitor, or the high resolution 640×400 black and white mode with the monochrome monitor.
It must be noted that not all systems using 16-bit color depth employ the 16-bit, 32-64-32 level RGB palette. Platforms like the Sharp X68000 home computer or the Neo Geo video game console employs the 15-bit RGB palette (5 bits are used for red, green, and blue), but the last bit specifies a less significant intensity or luminance.
Updated January 5, 2025 at 11:30 PM The NFL playoff schedule is set. As the final components of the playoff picture fell into place in Week 18, the league revealed its slate for the wild-card round.
Mesh data is usually stored using 32-bit single-precision floats for the vertices, however in some situations it is acceptable to reduce the precision to only 16-bit half-precision, requiring only half the storage at the expense of some precision. Mesh quantization can also be done with 8-bit or 16-bit fixed precision depending on the requirements.
