Question

Define Texture Mapping with example.

Hint:

Texture mapping enhances realism in 3D models by simulating surfaces like bricks, wood, or metal.

Answer 1

Texture Mapping involves projecting a 2D image, or texture, onto the surface of a 3D object to enhance realism by simulating material characteristics.

Example: Applying a brick texture to a 3D plane simulates a realistic brick wall.
