In animation, the node connections involved in specifying an object’s deformation order. Maya evaluates an object starting from the make node and working all the way through in order to the final ...

displacement map

Software; CAD

In rendering, the simulation of 3-dimensional surface detail effects by altering the surface of the geometry. Displacement occurs along the surface normals according to the intensity of the pixels in ...

displacement material

Software; CAD

In rendering, a description of what an object looks like when it is rendered with a displacement map. The displacement material lets you use an image to specify surface relief on objects in your ...
