Overview Cannon.js is a lightweight, easy-to-use physics engine that integrates seamlessly with Three.js. It allows developers to add realistic physics behaviors, such as collisions, gravity, and rigid body dynamics, to 3D scenes, enhancing the interactivity and realism of applications. Key Features: Realistic Physics Simulation: Simulate gravity, collisions, and rigid body dynamics in real-time. Seamless Integration:… Continue reading Implementing Physics with Cannon.js in Three.js

Overview Height maps in Three.js are grayscale images that define the elevation of terrain in a scene. By applying a height map to a plane geometry, you can generate realistic landscapes, including mountains, valleys, and other geographical features. Key Features: Realistic Terrain Generation: Use height maps to create detailed, natural-looking environments. Ease of Use: Height… Continue reading Building Realistic Terrain with Height Maps in Three.js

Overview Shader materials in Three.js allow developers to create custom visual effects by writing GLSL (OpenGL Shading Language) shaders. These shaders provide fine-grained control over how objects are rendered, enabling effects like water reflections, custom lighting, and non-photorealistic rendering. Key Features: Custom Visual Effects: Shaders enable unique visual styles and effects that are difficult to… Continue reading Introduction to Shader Materials: Customizing Visual Effects in Three.js
