3D Space Wallpaper

An Object in computer graphics and especially video games is something like a car, a person or a weapon. It is generally something that plays an active part in a scene. Any object in 3D space can be broken down into triangles. Each triangle can be represented by three vertices (vertices is the plural of vertex). As mentioned before vertex is a point in space that has positional as well as directional information. If we change the vertices that represents a triangle we also change that triangle. If we change all the triangles which comprises an object we also change the object in 3D space. It can therefore be said that a change in the vertices cause a change in the object in 3D space. Vertex processing is the process whereby each vertex of an object is transformed from 3D in virtual space to an image on a 2D coordinate system. This 2D image can be displayed on a computer screen or printed by a printer. Vertex processing is done in a vertex shader. The modern trend is to have vertex shaders that are programmable. This allows for greater flexibility in the rendering and display of the objects by a computer.

Many designers know how to create 3D geometry using AutoCAD's surface and solids modeling tools. They know how to use the UCS command to work on any plane in 3D space, and how to use the MVIEW command to display views of their geometry in a paper space layout.
