tessellation和mosaic有什么区别?

tessellation:A?Tessellation?(or Tiling) is when we cover a surface with a pattern of flat shapes so that there are no overlaps or gaps.

把物体表面用规则几何图案铺满并且没有重叠和缝隙就叫tessellation。

Mosaic:Mosaic?is the?art?of creating images with an assemblage of small pieces of colored?glass, stone, or other materials.?

Mosaic:中文叫马赛克,把不规则装饰材料如彩色玻璃、石材等组合在一起构成一幅画面的艺术形式。

区别:tessellation为几何图形,而Mosaic是拼贴图画。
