What is UV Mapping in Spatial Computing?
In augmented reality (A/R), virtual reality (V/R) and mixed reality (M/R), the term "UV Mapping" refers to the process of generating a two-dimensional (2D) representation of a three-dimensional (3D) object, model or geometry.
An example of a how a 3D model converts into a UV map and how it allows for texture mapping.
UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's, object's or geometry's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping.
The coordinates that are used when considered a UV Map are known as UV Coordinates.
