Explanation of Solution

Procedural Modeling:

  • For complex shapes, realistic models cannot be obtained by geometric modeling or manual digitizing.
  • Examples of complex shapes are intricate plant structures such as trees, complex terrain such as mountain ranges, and gaseous substances such as clouds, smoke, or the flames of a fire.
  • For above complex shapes, polygonal meshes can be obtained by writing programs that construct the desired shape automatically. Such programs are collectively known as Procedural Models.
  • A procedural model is a program unit that applies an algorithm to generate a desired structure.

The two types of procedure models are:

  • Particle systems:
    • In this method, the underlying structure of an object is simulated as large collection of particles...
