# Smooth Curvature 2 node

The Smooth Curvature 2 node generates an curvature texture from its input.

## Inputs

The Smooth Curvature 2 node accepts a single greyscale image as input, interpreted as a heightmap.

## Outputs

The Smooth Curvature 2 node outputs the generated curvature map where dark values are crevices, light values are exposed shapes and grey values are neutral.

## Parameters

The Smooth Curvature 2 node has the following parameters:

- the size of the curvature map

- the quality of the curvature calculation

- the strength or contrast of the curvature map

- the radius taken into account for the curvature, adjust this to capture smaller or larger curvature details

- the buffer parameter decides if the input must be stored in a buffer before generating the curvature map
