# Z-Buffer 3D Rendering Application
Welcome to the Z-Buffer 3D Rendering Application, a simple yet powerful tool for rendering three-dimensional objects using the Z-Buffer algorithm. This application is built using C++ and Qt for the graphical interface.
## Introduction
The Z-Buffer 3D Rendering Application demonstrates the implementation of the Z-Buffer algorithm for efficient and accurate rendering of 3D scenes. It includes basic geometric shapes like cones, spheres, and cubes, showcasing the versatility of the Z-Buffer rendering technique.
## Features
- **Z-Buffer Rendering:** Utilizes the Z-Buffer algorithm to achieve pixel-perfect depth calculations.
- **Object Variety:** Renders cones, spheres, and cubes, providing a diverse set of 3D objects.
- **Interactive Rotation:** Allows users to interactively rotate objects around the X, Y, and Z axes.
## How to Use
1. Clone the repository to your local machine.
2. Open the project in a C++ development environment that supports Qt.
3. Build and run the application.
4. Explore the rendered 3D objects and use the interactive rotation controls.
## Code Overview
- The `zbuffer` class extends `QLabel` and serves as the main application window.
- Objects are constructed and stored using the `build_objects` method, representing cones, spheres, and cubes.
- Rotation functions (`rotate_objects_X`, `rotate_objects_Y`, `rotate_objects_Z`) allow interactive manipulation of objects.
- The `zbufferRender` method initializes the Z-Buffer and triggers rendering.
- Painting operations are batched for efficiency, with points sorted based on Z-coordinates.
