2D Transformations in Computer Graphics-

We have discussed-

• Transformation is a process of modifying and re-positioning the existing graphics.


• 2D Transformations take place in a two dimensional plane.
In computer graphics, various transformation techniques are-

2D Translation in Computer Graphics-

In Computer graphics,
2D Translation is a process of moving an object from one position to another in a two
dimensional plane.

Consider a point object O has to be moved from one position to another in a 2D plane.
Let-
• Initial coordinates of the object O = (Xold, Yold)
• New coordinates of the object O after translation = (Xnew, Ynew)
• Translation vector or Shift vector = (Tx, Ty)
Given a Translation vector (Tx, Ty)-
• Tx defines the distance the Xold coordinate has to be moved.

• Ty efines the distance the Yold coordinate has to be moved.


This translation is achieved by adding the translation coordinates to the old coordinates of
the object as-
• Xnew = Xold + Tx (This denotes translation towards X axis)
• Ynew = Yold + T y (This denotes translation towards Y axis)

In Matrix form, the above translation equations may be represented as-

• The homogeneous coordinates representation of (X, Y) is (X, Y, 1).


• Through this representation, all the transformations can be performed using matrix
/ vector multiplications.

The above translation matrix may be represented as a 3 x 3 matrix as-


PRACTICE PROBLEMS BASED ON 2D TRANSLATION IN
COMPUTER GRAPHICS-
Problem-01:
Given a circle C with radius 10 and center coordinates (1, 4). Apply the translation with
distance 5 towards X axis and 1 towards Y axis. Obtain the new coordinates of C without
changing its radius.

Solution-
Given-
• Old center coordinates of C = (Xold, Yold) = (1, 4)
• Translation vector = (Tx, Ty) = (5, 1)
Let the new center coordinates of C = (Xnew, Ynew).
Applying the translation equations, we have-
• Xnew = Xold + Tx = 1 + 5 = 6
• Ynew = Yold + T y = 4 + 1 = 5
Thus, New center coordinates of C = (6, 5).
Alternatively,
In matrix form, the new center coordinates of C after translation may be obtained as-
Thus, New center coordinates of C = (6, 5).

Problem-02:
Given a square with coordinate points A(0, 3), B(3, 3), C(3, 0), D(0, 0). Apply the translation
with distance 1 towards X axis and 1 towards Y axis. Obtain the new coordinates of the
square.

Solution-
Given-
• Old coordinates of the square = A (0, 3), B(3, 3), C(3, 0), D(0, 0)
• Translation vector = (Tx, Ty) = (1, 1)

For Coordinates A(0, 3)


Let the new coordinates of corner A = (Xnew, Ynew).
Applying the translation equations, we have-
• Xnew = Xold + Tx = 0 + 1 = 1
• Ynew = Yold + T y = 3 + 1 = 4

Thus, New coordinates of corner A = (1, 4).

For Coordinates B(3, 3)

Let the new coordinates of corner B = (Xnew, Ynew).


Applying the translation equations, we have-
• Xnew = Xold + Tx = 3 + 1 = 4
• Ynew = Yold + T y = 3 + 1 = 4
Thus, New coordinates of corner B = (4, 4).

For Coordinates C(3, 0)

Let the new coordinates of corner C = (Xnew, Ynew).


Applying the translation equations, we have-
• Xnew = Xold + Tx = 3 + 1 = 4
• Ynew = Yold + T y = 0 + 1 = 1
Thus, New coordinates of corner C = (4, 1).

For Coordinates D(0, 0)

Let the new coordinates of corner D = (Xnew, Ynew).


Applying the translation equations, we have-
• Xnew = Xold + Tx = 0 + 1 = 1
• Ynew = Yold + T y = 0 + 1 = 1
Thus, New coordinates of corner D = (1, 1).
Thus, New coordinates of the square = A (1, 4), B(4, 4), C(4, 1), D(1, 1).
