Bump Mapping

What is Bump Mapping

Creating the appearance of bumps and wrinkles on the surface of an object is the goal of the texture mapping technique known as bump mapping, which is used in computer graphics. This can be accomplished by perturbing the surface normals of the object and then using the disturbed normal in the calculations that are performed for the illumination. The end result is a surface that appears to be bumpy rather than smooth, despite the fact that the surface of the object that is now being worked on remains unchanged. In 1978, James Blinn laid the groundwork for the concept of bump mapping.
