# Cloth Shading

### Advanced structural fiber simulation for realistic garment and drapery rendering in XR environments.

> Realistic fabric rendering through light-fiber interaction.

**By capturing how light scatters across complex woven textile fibers, STD.DEV renders highly tactile, realistic garments and fabrics in real time.** By simulating micro-sheen, subsurface sheen anisotropy, and dynamic drapery fold shading in real time, the engine reproduces the authentic feel of silk, velvet, cotton, or heavy canvas. This enables virtual costumes, digital showrooms, and fabric-based environments to exhibit believable weight, softness, and material presence in WebXR.

**Rich Tactile Fabrics**

Recreates the premium feel of velvet, silk, or heavy canvas, allowing STD.DEV to craft luxurious virtual costumes and digital showrooms that wow the user with realistic sheen.

**Responsive Material Behavior**

Lets STD.DEV link fabric sheen and softness to wind vectors or user physical controllers, causing cloth fibers to shimmer and flutter dynamically in response to kinetic actions.

**Natural Drapery Realism**

Simulates how light filters softly through fabric folds and woven edges, enhancing spatial believability and creating beautiful, fluid drapery motions in immersive environments.

**Bringing Digital Textiles to Life.** Through Cloth Shading in SCORE XR, STD.DEV delivers nuanced, realistic rendering of fabrics under complete creative direction—perfect for immersive experiences and high-detail visual storytelling.
