reflection mapping

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.06 sec.

reflection mapping

A rendering method that simulates light reflecting on an object. It is a much faster method than ray tracing because it maps light over the image rather than actually computing the path the light takes. See ray tracing and radiosity. See also reflection.
