Displacementmaps are used to transform the vertices of a given mesh by the values of their pixels color.
Dynamic displacements add the possibility to modify or re-create the surface of a mesh during runtime.

Nearly any 3D-software or engine supports displacementmaps – Papervision needed a little help to handle that task.

As this test shows, Papervision is able to redraw an animated displacementmap on a plane with 48*36 intersections in realtime.
