(Note that although it looks like the bi-cubic interpolation approaches a sphere, an actual sphere is quadric.) Visual difference between sphere (green) and Catmull-Clark subdivision surface (magenta) from a cube. The Catmull–Clark algorithm is a technique used in 3D computer graphics to create curved surfaces by using subdivision surface ...

SketchUp is a 3D modeling software that is used to create and manipulate 3D models. It is used in architecture and interior design. SketchUp is owned by Trimble Inc. The software has a free web-based version, and three paid subscriptions to gain access to applications for Windows and macOS. [4]
Modeling can be performed by means of a dedicated program (e.g., 3D modeling software by Adobe Substance, Blender, Cinema 4D, LightWave, Maya, Modo, 3ds Max, uMake, SketchUp, Rhinoceros 3D and others) or an application component (Shaper, Lofter in 3ds Max), or some scene description language (as in POV-Ray).
UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping. The letters "U" and "V" denote the axes of the 2D texture because "X", "Y", and "Z" are already used to denote the axes of the 3D object in model space, while "W" (in addition to XYZ) is used in calculating quaternion rotations, a common ...
In 2006 a set of specialised nodes for creating simple shapes such as: Sphere, Cylinder, Cone, Torus, Box and Bézier Lathe were added to make Seamless3d easier for the novice to quickly make simple models. [13] In 2007 the animation interface was greatly simplified by the introduction of a specialised control panel called the Anim bar. [14]
Art of Illusion is 3D graphics software, [2] such as Blender and Wings 3D (which are both free software), and Autodesk 3ds Max and Autodesk Maya (which are both proprietary software). Although some sources seem to confuse 3D modeling with computer-aided design (CAD), [5] Art of Illusion does not provide any CAD-like features, such as parametric ...
Additive manufacturing file format (AMF) is an open standard for describing objects for additive manufacturing processes such as 3D printing.The official ISO/ASTM 52915:2016 [1] [2] standard is an XML-based format designed to allow any computer-aided design software to describe the shape and composition of any 3D object to be fabricated on any 3D printer via a computer-aided manufacturing ...
