Materials

Materials are instances of THREE.Material that define how objects appear. There are several common material subclasses:

Constructor	Explanation
MeshBasicMaterial	It is not affected by lighting (a characteristic called unlit), so this is usually used to display a solid color or a wireframe. Two adjacent, same-colored, unlit surfaces are difficult to tell apart.
MeshNormalMaterial	The red/green/blue values of the colors displayed by this material are based on the magnitude of the x/y/z values of the faces' normal vectors. (A normal vector is perpendicular to a surface.) This material is unlit and useful for quickly distinguishing the shape of an object.
MeshDepthMaterial	It is an unlit material that shows shades of gray, with brightness depending on the distance from the camera. It is useful when designing scenes before applying more realistic textures.
MeshLambertMaterial	Faces are affected by lighting, but are not shiny. Specifically, lighting is calculated per-vertex...
