Question

Which of the following statements is/are True regarding the solution to the visibility problem in 3D graphics?

S1: The Painter’s algorithm sorts polygons by depth and then paints (scan - converts) each Polygon on to the screen starting with the most nearest polygon.

S2: Backface Culling refers to eliminating geometry with backfacing normals.

Code:

The correct answer is

S2 only

S2 only is true. The painter's algorithm draws polygons from farthest to nearest, allowing nearer surfaces to overwrite farther ones. Backface culling removes polygons whose outward normals face away from the viewer.
