3d Transformation Coordinates

This document discusses shearing in 3D computer graphics. It defines shearing transformations along the X, Y, and Z axes using shearing parameters and equations. An example problem is given where the coordinates of a 3D triangle are sheared based on given parameters for the X, Y, and Z axes. The resulting new coordinates of the triangle vertices are calculated for each shearing transformation.

Shearing

1. Shearing in X direction
2. Shearing in Y direction
3. Shearing in Z direction
 
Consider a point object O has to be sheared in a 3D plane.
 
Let-
Initial coordinates of the object O = (Xold, Yold, Zold)
Shearing parameter towards X direction = Shx
Shearing parameter towards Y direction = Shy
Shearing parameter towards Z direction = Shz
New coordinates of the object O after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew)
 
Shearing in X Axis-
 
Shearing in X axis is achieved by using the following shearing equations-
Xnew = Xold
Ynew = Yold + Shy x Xold
Znew = Zold + Shz x Xold
 
In Matrix form, the above shearing equations may be represented as-
 
 
Shearing in Y Axis-
 
Shearing in Y axis is achieved by using the following shearing equations-
Xnew = Xold + Shx x Yold
Ynew = Yold
Znew = Zold + Shz x Yold
 
In Matrix form, the above shearing equations may be represented as-
 
 
Shearing in Z Axis-
 
Shearing in Z axis is achieved by using the following shearing equations-
Xnew = Xold + Shx x Zold
Ynew = Yold + Shy x Zold
Znew = Zold
 
In Matrix form, the above shearing equations may be represented as-
 

 
PRACTICE PROBLEMS BASED ON 3D SHEARING IN COMPUTER
GRAPHICS-
 
Problem-01:
 
Given a 3D triangle with points (0, 0, 0), (1, 1, 2) and (1, 1, 3). Apply
shear parameter 2 on X axis, 2 on Y axis and 3 on Z axis and find out
the new coordinates of the object.
 
Solution-
 
Given-
Old corner coordinates of the triangle = A (0, 0, 0), B(1, 1, 2), C(1,
1, 3)
Shearing parameter towards X direction (Shx) = 2
Shearing parameter towards Y direction (Shy) = 2
Shearing parameter towards Y direction (Shz) = 3
 
Shearing in X Axis-
 
For Coordinates A(0, 0, 0)
 
Let the new coordinates of corner A after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew).
 
Applying the shearing equations, we have-
Xnew = Xold = 0
Ynew = Yold + Shy x Xold = 0 + 2 x 0 = 0
Znew = Zold + Shz x Xold = 0 + 3 x 0 = 0
 
Thus, New coordinates of corner A after shearing = (0, 0, 0).
 
For Coordinates B(1, 1, 2)
 
Let the new coordinates of corner B after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew).
 
Applying the shearing equations, we have-
Xnew = Xold = 1
Ynew = Yold + Shy x Xold = 1 + 2 x 1 = 3
Znew = Zold + Shz x Xold = 2 + 3 x 1 = 5
 
Thus, New coordinates of corner B after shearing = (1, 3, 5).
 
For Coordinates C(1, 1, 3)
 
Let the new coordinates of corner C after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew).
 
Applying the shearing equations, we have-
Xnew = Xold = 1
Ynew = Yold + Shy x Xold = 1 + 2 x 1 = 3
Znew = Zold + Shz x Xold = 3 + 3 x 1 = 6
 
Thus, New coordinates of corner C after shearing = (1, 3, 6).
Thus, New coordinates of the triangle after shearing in X axis = A (0, 0,
0), B(1, 3, 5), C(1, 3, 6).
 
Shearing in Y Axis-
 
For Coordinates A(0, 0, 0)
 
Let the new coordinates of corner A after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew).
 
Applying the shearing equations, we have-
Xnew = Xold + Shx x Yold = 0 + 2 x 0 = 0
Ynew = Yold = 0
Znew = Zold + Shz x Yold = 0 + 3 x 0 = 0
 
Thus, New coordinates of corner A after shearing = (0, 0, 0).
 
For Coordinates B(1, 1, 2)
 
Let the new coordinates of corner B after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew).
 
Applying the shearing equations, we have-
Xnew = Xold + Shx x Yold = 1 + 2 x 1 = 3
Ynew = Yold = 1
Znew = Zold + Shz x Yold = 2 + 3 x 1 = 5
 
Thus, New coordinates of corner B after shearing = (3, 1, 5).
 
For Coordinates C(1, 1, 3)
 
Let the new coordinates of corner C after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew).
 
Applying the shearing equations, we have-
Xnew = Xold + Shx x Yold = 1 + 2 x 1 = 3
Ynew = Yold = 1
Znew = Zold + Shz x Yold = 3 + 3 x 1 = 6
 
Thus, New coordinates of corner C after shearing = (3, 1, 6).
Thus, New coordinates of the triangle after shearing in Y axis = A (0, 0,
0), B(3, 1, 5), C(3, 1, 6).
 
Shearing in Z Axis-
 
For Coordinates A(0, 0, 0)
 
Let the new coordinates of corner A after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew).
 
Applying the shearing equations, we have-
Xnew = Xold + Shx x Zold = 0 + 2 x 0 = 0
Ynew = Yold + Shy x Zold = 0 + 2 x 0 = 0
Znew = Zold = 0
 
Thus, New coordinates of corner A after shearing = (0, 0, 0).
 
For Coordinates B(1, 1, 2)
 
Let the new coordinates of corner B after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew).
 
Applying the shearing equations, we have-
Xnew = Xold + Shx x Zold = 1 + 2 x 2 = 5
Ynew = Yold + Shy x Zold = 1 + 2 x 2 = 5
Znew = Zold = 2
 
Thus, New coordinates of corner B after shearing = (5, 5, 2).
 
For Coordinates C(1, 1, 3)
 
Let the new coordinates of corner C after shearing = (X new, Ynew, Znew).
 
Applying the shearing equations, we have-
Xnew = Xold + Shx x Zold = 1 + 2 x 3 = 7
Ynew = Yold + Shy x Zold = 1 + 2 x 3 = 7
Znew = Zold = 3
 
Thus, New coordinates of corner C after shearing = (7, 7, 3).
Thus, New coordinates of the triangle after shearing in Z axis = A (0, 0,
0), B(5, 5, 2), C(7, 7, 3).
