The Different Types of wire frame models are as follows:

1. 2D Wire Frame Model

2. 2 1/2 D Wire Frame Model

3. 3 D Wire Frame Model

a. 2 D Model

Two dimensional representation is used for flat object. It is basically used for representating objects on any flat plane. All objects which represented on a flat plane come under 2D Model represetation. This plane only give an idea of the compunding boundary of any surface boundary on area enclosed on a flat plane. Here abcd 5 a wire frame model on a flat plane.

b. 2 1/2 D Wire Frame Modelling

2 1/2 Wire Frame Modelling :-

This goes further than 2D capacity by permitting a 3D Object to be representing as long as it does not have any sides walls (e.g cylinder, canbe). This kind of on object simplifies the datas representation of the object thereby impraing the efficiency of the so frame.

c. 3D Wire Frame Modelling

3D Skeleton Model

This type of model represent the skeleton model. It gives the graphic envelope created by the objects but fails to show the areas, volume i.e It does not have any finite volume area.

It just consist of the wire frame streame , holding no. surface. It does not give a good idea of the 3D model. Diffuculty to analysis as well.
