Some normal maps are generated using a filter which looks at a 2d image, and guesses the vector value based on the illumination values.

Rather than having a color range of black to white, like a bump map uses, normal maps consist of red, green, and blue. These RGB values translates to x, y, and z coordinates, allowing a 2D image to represent depth.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is a normal in graphics?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>A normal is the technical term used in Computer Graphics (and Geometry) to describe the orientation of a surface of a geometric object at a point on that surface. &#8230; Technically, the surface normal to a surface at point P, can be seen as the vector perpendicular to a plane tangent to the surface at P.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is a normal map blender?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Normal maps. These are images that store a direction, the direction of normals directly in the RGB values of an image. They are much more accurate, as rather than only simulating the pixel being away from the face along a line, they can simulate that pixel being moved at any direction, in an arbitrary way.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I add a normal map to blender?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HUDOU7gSOwE\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I make a normal map image?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open texture in Photoshop as you would normally any image.
