Projection

Projection is a technique to transform 3D objects into 2D planes. There are two main types of projection: parallel projection extends lines from object vertices to intersect the projection plane, while perspective projection uses converging lines that meet at a center point. Perspective projection is more realistic but harder to implement, and uses vanishing points where parallel lines appear to meet.

Projection

• Projection is a technique or process which is


used to transform a 3D object into a 2D
plane.”
• In other words, we can define
“projection as a mapping of points P (x, y, z) on
to its image P’ (x,’ y,’z’) in the projection plane
or view plane, which create the display
surface.”
Parallel Projection
• Parallel projections are used by architects and engineers
• For creating working drawing of the object, for complete
representations require two or more views of an object using
different planes.
• Parallel Projection use to display picture in its true shape and
size.
• The parallel projection is formed by extending parallel lines
from each vertex on the object until they intersect the plane
of the screen.
• The point of intersection is the projection of vertex.
Parallel Projection
Perspective Projection

• The distance of the project plane from the


center of projection is finite.
• The object size keeps changing in reverse order
with distance.
• Perspective projection is used to determine the
projector lines come together at a single point.
• The single point is also called “project
reference point” or “Center of projection.”
Perspective projections
• Perspective projections are used by artist for
drawing three-dimensional scenes.
• In Perspective projection lines of projection do
not remain parallel.
• The lines converge at a single point called a
center of projection.
• The projected image on the screen is obtained
by points of intersection of converging lines
with the plane of the screen.
Perspective projections
Characteristic of Perspective Projection
• The Distance between the object and
projection center is finite.
• difficult to define the actual size and shape of
the object.
• Has the concept of vanishing points.
• The Perspective Projection is realistic but
tough to implement.
Vanishing Point
• Vanishing point can be defined as a point in
image plane where all parallel lines are
interlinked.
• The Vanishing point is also called “Directing
Point.”
Use of Vanishing Point
• It is used in 3D games and graphics editing.
• It is also used to represent 3D objects.
• We can also include perspective in the
background of an image.
• We can also insert the shadow effect in an
image.
Types of Perspective Projection
One Point
• A One Point perspective contains only one
vanishing point on the horizon line.
• The One Point projection is mostly used to
draw the images of roads, railway tracks, and
buildings.
Two Point
• It is also called “Angular Perspective.”
• A Two Point perspective contains two
vanishing points on the line.
• The main use of Two Point projection is to
draw the two corner roads.
Three-Point Perspective
• The Three-Point Perspective contains three
vanishing points.
• Two points lie on the horizon line, and one
above or below the line.
• It is very difficult to draw.
• When we see an object from above, than the
third point is below the ground.
• If we see an object from the below, than the
third point is in the space above.
