Normal coordinates — In differential geometry, normal coordinates at a point p in a differentiable manifold equipped with a symmetric affine connection are a local coordinate system in a neighborhood of p obtained by applying the exponential map to the tangent space… … Wikipedia
Normal mapping — used to re detail simplified meshes. In 3D computer graphics, normal mapping, or Dot3 bump mapping , is a technique used for faking the lighting of bumps and dents. It is used to add details without using more polygons. A common use of this… … Wikipedia
Curvilinear coordinates — Curvilinear, affine, and Cartesian coordinates in two dimensional space Curvilinear coordinates are a coordinate system for Euclidean space in which the coordinate lines may be curved. These coordinates may be derived from a set of Cartesian… … Wikipedia

Orthogonal coordinates — In mathematics, orthogonal coordinates are defined as a set of d coordinates q = (q1, q2, ..., qd) in which the coordinate surfaces all meet at right angles (note: superscripts are indices, not exponents). A coordinate surface for a particular… … Wikipedia
