Graphics Pipeline

The graphics pipeline is a series of steps used by computers to create images from 3D models for screens. It starts with modeling, where shapes are defined, followed by transforming these shapes into a 2D view, considering perspective and lighting. Next, colors and textures are applied to surfaces. Final touches include rendering, where the image is processed to enhance visual quality. The result is a complete 2D image that displays realistic or stylized graphics, which you see in video games, movies, and applications. This process occurs rapidly, allowing for smooth visuals and real-time interaction.
