Stanford Bunny

 
Hacker Slang: Stanford Bunny

The successor of the Utah Teapot. The model is of a chocolate Easter bunny consisting of about 5000 polygons. It is small by 2002 standards, but is more illustrative than the teapot of of techniques such as surface radiance (e.g. radiosity) and self-reflection. There is a history page. Compare lenna.

The Stanford Bunny rendered in YafRay.

The Stanford Bunny is a computer graphics test model developed by Greg Turk and Marc Levoy in 1994 at Stanford University.

The Bunny consists of data describing 69,451 triangles determined by 3D scanning a ceramic figurine of a rabbit. The data can be used to test various graphics algorithms; including polygonal simplification, compression, and surface smoothing. While the Stanford Bunny is a standard test data set, it does have limitations. These include its simplicity by today's standards (only 69,451 triangles), that it is manifold connected, and that it has holes in the data (some due to scanning limits and some due to the object being hollow).

The model was originally available in .ply (polygons) file format with 4 different resolutions, 69,451 polygons being the highest.
