  2. Ray casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_casting

    Ray-cast image of idealized universal joint with shadow. Ray casting is the methodological basis for 3D CAD/CAM solid modeling and image rendering. It is essentially the same as ray tracing for computer graphics where virtual light rays are "cast" or "traced" on their path from the focal point of a camera through each pixel in the camera sensor to determine what is visible along the ray in the ...

    LightWave is a software package used for rendering 3D images, both animated and static.It includes a fast rendering engine that supports such advanced features as realistic reflection, radiosity, caustics, and 999 render nodes.

  4. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    In computer science, type conversion, [1] [2] type casting, [1] [3] type coercion, [3] and type juggling [4] [5] are different ways of changing an expression from one data type to another. An example would be the conversion of an integer value into a floating point value or its textual representation as a string , and vice versa.

    It's a free compiler, though it also has commercial add-ons (e.g. for hiding source code). Numba is used from Python, as a tool (enabled by adding a decorator to relevant Python code), a JIT compiler that translates a subset of Python and NumPy code into fast machine code. Pythran compiles a subset of Python 3 to C++ . [165]

    DASH is an adaptive bitrate streaming technology where a multimedia file is partitioned into one or more segments and delivered to a client using HTTP. [15] A media presentation description (MPD) describes segment information (timing, URL, media characteristics like video resolution and bit rates), and can be organized in different ways such as SegmentList, SegmentTemplate, SegmentBase and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_mapping

    Projection mapping of a pattern onto curved surfaces. Projection mapping, similar to video mapping and spatial augmented reality, is a projection technique [1] [2] used to turn objects, often irregularly shaped, into display surfaces for video projection.
