Description: Vertex compression is a technique used in computer graphics to reduce the size of vertex data, which is fundamental for the representation of 3D models. This technique involves reducing the amount of information that needs to be stored and processed, resulting in improved performance and decreased memory usage. Vertices contain information about position, color, normals, and texture coordinates, among other attributes. By applying compression, the goal is to maintain the visual quality of the model while optimizing resources. There are different compression methods, such as compressing individual attributes or grouping similar vertices, which allow for a more efficient representation. Vertex compression is particularly relevant in applications where efficiency is crucial, such as in computer graphics, gaming, and real-time simulations, where large amounts of graphic data are handled. By reducing data size, loading speed is improved, and overall graphic system performance is optimized, allowing developers to create richer and more complex experiences without compromising fluidity.
