Vertex
A point that stores a position and may store additional per-point attributes.
Vertices define mesh corners and may carry normals, UV coordinates, color, weights, or other attributes. Identical positions do not necessarily mean the same vertex when a model needs a hard edge, UV seam, or independent topology.
