3D mesh

A 3D mesh is a digital structure used to create and represent three-dimensional objects in computer graphics. It consists of many small, interconnected flat surfaces called polygons, typically triangles or quads, which together form the shape of the object. Think of it as a wireframe or a skeletal framework that defines the object's form, surface details, and contours. Artists and designers use meshes to model everything from characters to environments, allowing for realistic rendering, animation, and interaction in video games, movies, and simulations. The mesh's accuracy and complexity influence the object's visual quality and computational performance.
