Overview<\/h3>\n

In computer graphics, albedo refers to the base color of an object. It is a measure of the amount of light that is reflected from an object’s surface. Albedo is typically represented as a value between 0 and 1, where 0 is no reflection and 1 is perfect reflection.<\/p>\n

Albedo is an important factor in determining the appearance of an object in a 3D scene. For example, an object with a high albedo will appear brighter than an object with a low albedo. Albedo can also be used to create different materials, such as metals, plastics, and wood.<\/p>\n

In computer graphics, albedo is often represented by a texture map. A texture map is a 2D image that is applied to the surface of an object. The albedo map is used to determine the color of the object in different lighting conditions.<\/p>\n

Here is an example of how albedo is used in computer graphics:<\/p>\n<\/div>
