Point
This is a light that radiates from a single point in all directions, typically used to mimic the light from a bare light bulb.
This type of light can cast shadows.
Directional
This light emits in a specific direction and acts as if it’s infinitely far away, with all its rays running parallel. This is commonly used to simulate daylight, as the sun’s position is far enough to be considered infinite, and its light rays are parallel.
This type of light can cast shadows.
Spot
This light radiates from a single point in one direction, expanding along a cone shape as it moves away from the light source.
This type of light can cast shadows.
