    Axonometric and Oblique Projection

    Uploaded by

    Usama Tahir
    Axonometric projection is a type of orthographic projection that rotates the object around its axes to show multiple sides. There are three main types: isometric, dimetric, and trimetric projection. Oblique projection is another type of technical drawing projection where parallel lines intersect the projection plane at an oblique angle rather than perpendicular as in orthographic projection. It can depict three-dimensional objects in two dimensions by using parallel projectors. Spheres are projected as ellipses rather than circles in oblique projection.

    Axonometric Projection:
    Axonometric projection is a type
    of orthographic projection used for creating a pictorial drawing of
    an object, where the lines of sight are perpendicular to the plane of
    projection, and the object is rotated around one or more of its axes
    to reveal multiple sides.

    Types:
    Axonometric projection has three types
    which are briefly discussed below:
    In isometric projection, the most commonly used form of
    axonometric projection in engineering drawing, the direction of
    viewing is such that the three axes of space appear
    equally foreshortened, and there is a common angle of 120° between
    them.
    In dimetric projection, the direction of viewing is such that two of the
    three axes of space appear equally foreshortened, of which the
    attendant scale and angles of presentation are determined according
    to the angle of viewing; the scale of the third direction is determined
    separately. Dimensional approximations are common in dimetric
    drawings
    In trimetric projection, the direction of viewing is such that all of the
    three axes of space appear unequally foreshortened. The scale along
    each of the three axes and the angles among them are determined
    separately as dictated by the angle of viewing. Dimensional
    approximations in trimetric drawings are common, and trimetric
    perspective is seldom used in technical drawings.
    Oblique Projection:
    Oblique projection is a simple type of
    technical drawing of graphical projection used for producing two-
    dimensional images of three-dimensional objects. Oblique projection
    is commonly used in technical drawing. The cavalier projection was
    used by French military artists in the 18th century to depict
    fortifications.
    Oblique projection is a type of parallel projection:

     it projects an image by intersecting parallel rays (projectors)


     from the three-dimensional source object with the drawing
    surface (projection plane).

    In both oblique projection and orthographic projection, parallel


    lines of the source object produce parallel lines in the projected
    image. The projectors in oblique projection intersect the projection
    plane at an oblique angle to produce the projected image, as
    opposed to the perpendicular angle used in orthographic projection.
    Mathematically, the parallel projection of the point9 (x,y,z) on the
    xy- plane gives (x+az, y+bz, 0) . The constants a and b uniquely
    specify a parallel projection. When a=b=0, the projection is said to
    be "orthographic" or "orthogonal". Otherwise, it is "oblique". The
    constants a and b are not necessarily less than 1, and as a
    consequence lengths measured on an oblique projection may be
    either larger or shorter than they were in space. In a general oblique
    projection, spheres of the space are projected as ellipses on the
    drawing plane, and not as circles as you would expect them from an
    orthogonal projection.
