BufferGeometry

Representation of mesh, line, or point geometry with GPU-optimized buffers.
This class provides geometry data storage for rendering. It includes vertex positions, face indices, normals, colors, UVs, and custom attributes within buffers.

• Managing indexed and non-indexed geometry
• Computing bounding volumes for culling
• Organizing geometry into render groups
• Applying geometric transformations
