[With] a small electricity generating system – for example, a solar panel – you can become a prosumer(a term derived from the union of ’producer’ + ’consumer’) or self-producer, thus moving from a role of passive user to active participant in the electricity system. Prosumers can generate electricity for their own use but also feed it back into the grid in a process called distributed generation...

Bilinear filtering is a method of anti-aliasing texture maps. A texture-aliening artifact occurs due to sampling on a finite pixel grid. Point-sampled telexes jump from one pixel to another at random times. This aliening is very noticeable on slowly rotating or moving polygons. The texture image jumps and shears along pixel boundaries. To eliminate this problem, bilinear filtering takes a weighted average of four adjacent texture pixels to create a single telex.

  • Infographie
CONT

filtrage bilinéaire : afin d'améliorer les effets visuels des placages de textures, le filtre bi-linéaire interpole de nouveaux pixels entre 2 pixels horizontaux et verticaux. Ainsi, les textures ne se dégradent pas trop quand on les regardent de près.
