Two problems with all 3D representations of environments are the memory limit and rendering time of textures placed on a 3D plane. Software developers usually have to limit the size of resolutions for their textures. With these resolution limits, textures can be blurry up close when looking at them. In this thesis, I propose a new texturing technique that will replace the texture’s large stretched pixels with repeatable micro-textures that represent the material that the overall texture is representing. So when the textures are seen up close now, it will display a crisp detailed representation of those materials at a micro level thus giving the illusion of much higher resolution textures within the 3D environment.
