Description
Increasing Access
This is with reference to issue #6531 .
The current implementation of the light feature in p5.js utilizes equirectangular textures, which may involve trigonometric calculations for texture coordinates, potentially impacting performance. This issue proposes exploring the use of cubemaps as an alternative approach to enhance performance.
Most appropriate sub-area of p5.js?

Feature enhancement details
- Assessing the visual quality of the light feature when using cubemaps compared to equirectangular textures to ensure that the proposed change does not compromise the intended visual effects.
- Verifying the compatibility of cubemaps across different browsers to ensure a consistent and reliable user experience.
- Testing the feature using cubemaps on various devices and screen resolutions to ensure compatibility and performance improvements.
