The disadvantage of flat shading is that it gives lowpolygon models a faceted look. This demo highlights the interaction of white light with two spherical objects with different chromatic and material properties. All vectors are assumed to be normalized to unit length. In 3d computer graphics, it is sometimes referred to as phong shading, in particular if the model is used with the interpolation method of the same name and in the context of pixel shaders or other places where a lighting calculation can be. Phong shading is similar to gouraud shading, except that instead of interpolating the light intensities, the normals are interpolated between the vertices. Since the mid2000s, it has been the most widely used shading model in modern 3d video games. The term phong shading was once commonly used to refer to what we now know as perfragment or perpixel lighting. Another, a bit more realistic, lighting model is the blinn phong model that calculates the specular term somewhat differently.
This document breaks down the material shading models property options. Phong shading the normal values at each vertex are linearly interpolated within each triangle, and the radiance is computed at each pixel. Thus, the specular highlights are computed much more precisely than in the gouraud shading model. It interpolates surface normals across rasterized polygons and computes pixel colors based on the interpolated normals and a reflection model.

Gouraud shading is a method used in computer graphics to simulate the differing effects of light and colour across the surface of an object. A 3d mesh consists of vertices, which are connected by edges and thus form faces f. What this means is that the vertex shader must determine a color for each vertex and pass the color as an out variable to the fragment shader. This term should not be confused with the phong specular lighting model. Like the texture map that we describe in a later chapter, we may create a mapping that alters the normals in the polygon so the shading model can create the effect of a bumpy surface.
