• Key Concepts: 
  Bump mapping is a technique used in computer graphics to simulate bumps and wrinkles on the surface of an object. It is used in SAP Visual Enterprise to create realistic 3D models of objects. The bump map is a texture map that is applied to the surface of the object, which gives it a more realistic look and feel.
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP Visual Enterprise, bump mapping is used to create realistic 3D models of objects. To use bump mapping, you first need to create a texture map for the object. This texture map will be used as the bump map for the object. Once the texture map is created, it can be applied to the surface of the object using the bump mapping tool in SAP Visual Enterprise.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a texture map for an object, it is important to make sure that the texture map is detailed enough to give the object a realistic look and feel. It is also important to make sure that the texture map is properly aligned with the object so that it looks natural when applied.
  
  Related Information: 
  Bump mapping is just one of many techniques used in computer graphics to create realistic 3D models. Other techniques include normal mapping, displacement mapping, and ambient occlusion. All of these techniques can be used in combination with each other to create even more realistic 3D models.
