Simple Materials: MeshNormalMaterial
Explore how the MeshNormalMaterial in Three.js uses vertex normal vectors to render faces with varying colors and shading effects. Learn about flat and smooth shading options and how Three.js computes normals automatically to enhance 3D object visualization without manual calculations.
The THREE.MeshNormalMaterial
The next material is also one where we won’t have any influence on the colors used in rendering. The easiest way to understand how this material is rendered is by first looking at an example:
