Itreenode could be used and the quadtrees node should inherit from it. In a typical game, youll start by creating the quadtree and passing the bounds of the screen. For this purpose the demo uses a quadtree data structure based on axisaligned bounding boxes to speed up the search for triangles in a mesh. It is also useful as the first step in adaptive compression algorithms. The quadtree data structure is extensively used in representing 2dimensional. Tree traversals a traversal is a systematic way to visit all nodes of t. For ip and b frames, the either the intra or inter residual image is divided into a quadtree structure, in such a way as to minimize entropy per block blocks with lower entropy take less space. If you do any advanced work in graphics, sooner or later you will meet the quadtree or its 3d relation, the octree.
