ABSTRACT:
Texture mapping (TM) apparatus includes unit acquiring texture data items (TD) and model data items (MD), unit generating control data used for TM according to TD and MD, unit generating control instructions (CIs) for TM processes corresponding to control data, unit selecting at least one model data item (ALMD) and TD from TD and MD, based on first CI, unit determining arrangement of selected ALMD and TD, unit storing selected ALMD and TD based on determined arrangement, unit selecting, from stored MD and TD, MD and TD used for rendering, based on second CI, unit correcting MD selected for rendering and TD selected for rendering, using first measure designated by third CI, unit performing interpolation on corrected MD and TD, using second measure designated by fourth CI, unit mapping interpolated TD onto interpolated MD, using third measure designated by fifth CI, and unit outputting data as computer graphics data.
