    Perspective Projection

    Perspective projection is a technique used to represent a 3D image on a 2D plane as it would be seen by the human eye. Parallel lines appear to converge at vanishing points on the horizon line. Object sizes diminish as their distance from the viewer increases. A cone of vision of around 60 degrees provides a good perspective view. Sight lines drawn from points on an object to the viewer's eye intersect the picture plane and determine the object's perspective representation.

    Perspective Projection

    Perspective Projection is a geometric


    technique used to produce a three-
    dimensional graphic image on a plane,
    corresponding to what a person actually
    sees.
    PERSPECTIVE PROJECTION
    One point Perspective
    Two point Perspective
    Auxiliary vanishing points
    PERSPECTIVE PROJECTION
    Parallel lines appear to converge as they recede from the spectator.
    Equal distances appear to get shorter.
    Objects of the same size seem to diminish in size as they recede.

    Vanishing Point

    Vanishing Point

    Horizon Line
    The height of the horizon line always corresponds to the
    height of the spectator’s eye
    Terminology

    Ground Plane: The plane on which the spectator is standing. The plan of the
    object to be drawn lies on it - the object itself may also rest on it
    Picture Plane: The transparent plane perpendicular to the ground plane
    Ground Line: The line of intersection between the picture plane and the ground
    plane
    Spectator: The person observing the object (or objects)
    Cone of Vision
    blind to
    right eye
    distorted

    30° angle 60° angle


    cone of vision

    distorted
    blind to
    left eye
    Cone of Vision
    A 60° cone of vision gives a good perspective view of
    an object

    The axis of the cone is called the centre line of vision. The
    picture plane is drawn perpendicular to the centre line of
    vision
    Terminology

    Horizon Line: The height of the horizon line above the ground line is equal to that
    of the spectator’s eye above the ground plane
    Vanishing Point: The vanishing point for any line is found on the Picture Plane
    and is located by drawing a sight line from the spectator parallel to
    that line
    The vanishing points for all horizontal lines lie on the horizon line
    Terminology

    Sight Lines: The straight lines drawn from various points on


    the object to the eye of the spectator

    The points of intersection of the sight lines with the


    picture plane yield the perspective view of the object
    PERSPECTIVE PROJECTION
    One point perspective
    The centre line of vision is perpendicular to a side of the object.
    This side and all lines parallel to this side will be parallel to the picture
    plane so they do not converge.
    PERSPECTIVE PROJECTION

    Parallel lines vanish to the same vanishing point.

    Lines parallel to the picture plane in plan do not


    converge.

    If lines are parallel to the horizontal plane then the


    vanishing point is on the horizon line.

    The sides touching the picture plane are true


    dimensions.
    Perspective Projection
    Two point perspective
    PERSPECTIVE PROJECTION
    Picture plane perpendicular to centre line of vision.

    Sets of parallel lines appear to converge to the same


    vanishing point.

    The vanishing points for all horizontal lines lie on


    the horizon line.

    The edge touching the picture plane is a true height.


    PERSPECTIVE PROJECTION
    Height line
    When the edge of the object is not touching the picture plane a height line
    must be established on the picture plane.
    Identify a surface that contains necessary heights. Extend the surface to
    intersect the picture plane i.e. extend the surface parallel to its vanishing
    parallel. The elevation of the line of intersection gives the necessary
    heights .

    Height line
    Auxiliary Vanishing points

    Parallel lines vanish to the same vanishing point


    The vanishing point for any line is found on the Picture Plane and is
    located by drawing a sight line from the spectator parallel to that line
    The sight line for sloping lines intersects the PP at a height above or below
    the vanishing points
