Lecture 5: Texture Mapping (53)

What would happen if you keep magnifying and don't use bilinear interpolation in the texture space. What artifacts would the image (on the left) have?

The image will become blocky and pixelated if you keep magnifying the image without using bilinear interpolation. This happens because each element in the image will be represented by a larger square in screen space, resulting in the individual pixels becoming more noticeable. Without bilinear interpolation, the texture appears jagged and the lack of smooth transitions between texels makes the image look less natural and less defined.
