Graphics on vehicles: a survey on application of graphics on three dimensional products

Abstract

In this study, the reasons that led to the necessities of applications of graphics on three dimensional products and their application types are investigated. Vehicles are selected as an example group to analyze the three dimensional products. The criteria that must be considered while conveying the graphic design-which is often applied on two dimensional media- on to the three dimensional products, iire discussed on illustrated examples. It is concluded that the success of the application depends on considering design values of the product. Another conclusion is the importance of graphics as a variation tool in flexible mmiufacturing systems, which m^ike it possible to manufacture products according to personal needs and tastes.
