Transform Shape History Creating a Polygonal Chair Start with a primitive Adjust the edges Extrude out the 4 legs Then extrude the backrest Delete these two faces Prepare to make the panel of the backrest Use the “Append Polygon” tool to fill in new polygonal faces Rotate the backrest slightly backward Select all the convex and concave edges Apply Bevel to these edges Bevel makes the edges more rounded and realistic Another way to model Note that I am keeping all the faces 4 sided Extrude the faces out two times Shape the faces, edges and vertices to the desired shape Polygonal Smoothing Construction History Every action is recorded as part of the construction history. Keeping history will occupy more memory, result in large files, and slow down the interaction. Construction History Delete the history when they are no longer needed Tris, Quads, N-gons Keep the faces as 4 sides polygons (Quads) Triangles are ok E.g. Smoothing N-gons can result in unpredictable topology But anything more than 4 sides (N-gons) can cause undesirable artefacts Maya Project Before you create anything, set up a Maya Project first A Maya Project A Maya project folder contains a number of subfolders A Maya Project Maya looks for texture files here A Maya Project Maya render images here A Maya Project Maya looks for other .ma or .mb scene files that are “referenced” by the current scene file A Maya Project It is IMPORTANT to set up a Maya project folder when you start a new project.

3D Modeling and the Role of 3D Modeling in Our Life
ISSN 2413-1032 COMPUTER SCIENCE 3D MODELING AND THE ROLE OF 3D MODELING IN OUR LIFE 1Beknazarova Saida Safibullaevna 2Maxammadjonov Maxammadjon Alisher o’g’li 2Ibodullayev Sardor Nasriddin o’g’li 1Uzbekistan, Tashkent, Tashkent University of Informational Technologies, Senior Teacher 2Uzbekistan, Tashkent, Tashkent University of Informational Technologies, student Abstract. In 3D computer graphics, 3D modeling is the process of developing a mathematical representation of any three-dimensional surface of an object (either inanimate or living) via specialized software. The product is called a 3D model. It can be displayed as a two-dimensional image through a process called 3D rendering or used in a computer simulation of physical phenomena. The model can also be physically created using 3D printing devices. Models may be created automatically or manually. The manual modeling process of preparing geometric data for 3D computer graphics is similar to plastic arts such as sculpting. 3D modeling software is a class of 3D computer graphics software used to produce 3D models. Individual programs of this class are called modeling applications or modelers. Key words: 3D, modeling, programming, unity, 3D programs. Nowadays 3D modeling impacts in every sphere of: computer programming, architecture and so on. Firstly, we will present basic information about 3D modeling. 3D models represent a physical body using a collection of points in 3D space, connected by various geometric entities such as triangles, lines, curved surfaces, etc. Being a collection of data (points and other information), 3D models can be created by hand, algorithmically (procedural modeling), or scanned. 3D models are widely used anywhere in 3D graphics.

Many tools come with multiple functions. We put a primary category name behind a tool name in the alphabetic index, and put a tool name into multiple categories in the categorized index according to its functions. A.I. Graphics Tools Listed by Categories We have no intention of rating any of the tools. Many tools in the same category are not necessarily of the same quality or at the same capacity level.

Appendix a Basic Mathematics for 3D Computer Graphics
Appendix A Basic Mathematics for 3D Computer Graphics A.1 Vector Operations (),, A vector v is a represented as v1 v2 v3 , which has a length and direction. The location of a vector is actually undefined. We can consider it is parallel to the line (),, (),, from origin to a 3D point v. If we use two points A1 A2 A3 and B1 B2 B3 to (),, represent a vector AB, then AB = B1 – A1 B2 – A2 B3 – A3 , which is again parallel (),, to the line from origin to B1 – A1 B2 – A2 B3 – A3 . We can consider a vector as a ray from a starting point to an end point. However, the two points really specify a length and a direction. This vector is equivalent to any other vectors with the same length and direction. A.1.1 The Length and Direction The length of v is a scalar value as follows: 2 2 2 v = v1 ++v2 v3 . (EQ 1) 378 Appendix A The direction of the vector, which can be represented with a unit vector with length equal to one, is: ⎛⎞v1 v2 v3 normalize()v = ⎜⎟--------,,-------- -------- . (EQ 2) ⎝⎠v1 v2 v3 That is, when we normalize a vector, we find its corresponding unit vector. If we consider the vector as a point, then the vector direction is from the origin to that point. A.1.2 Addition and Subtraction (),, (),, If we have two points A1 A2 A3 and B1 B2 B3 to represent two vectors A and B, then you can consider they are vectors from the origin to the points.
