Introduction

Effective lighting is essential when working with 3D models, as it can significantly impact the visual quality and realism of your designs. On Threedium Platform, we provide a range of customizable lighting options to help you create the perfect atmosphere and showcase your 3D models in the best light.

Overview​

This documentation is designed to guide you through each available lighting option on our platform. We’ll explore the different types of lights available for your 3D scenes:

  • Ambient Light
  • Directional Light
  • Point Light
  • Spotlight
  • Hemisphere Light
  • Rectangular Area Light

explaining how they work and how to use them.

We’ll also introduce Environment Maps, which are used to simulate realistic global lighting conditions, enhancing reflections and shadows in your scene.

After that we will cover the Global Ambient Occlusion (AO) map feature, which helps simulate how light interacts with objects in your environment, adding depth and realism.

By the end of this section, you’ll have a solid understanding of how to use lighting settings effectively to enhance your 3D models and create more engaging, visually rich presentations.
