Best Answer

Anisotropic is when you view graphics and images at an oblique angle. It's like knowing what an object is in one direction but then your value of the object changes when viewed in different directions.

What is the definition of anisotropic material?

An anisotropic material is a material which does not behave the same way in all directions. Take wood for example. Wood is very strong along the grain. Against the grain, however, it will easily break. The opposite of an anisotropic material is an isotropic material. Most metals (steel, aluminum) are isotropic materials. They respond the same way in all directions.
