Viewing CoordinatesViewing Coordinates
• Generating a view of an object in 3D is similar to photographing the object.
• Whatever appears in the viewfinder is projected onto the flat film surface.
• Depending on the position, orientation and aperture size of the camera corresponding views of the scene is obtained.
Specifying The View CoordinatesSpecifying The View Coordinates
• For a particular view of a scene first we establish viewing-coordinate system.
• A view-plane (or projection plane) is set up perpendicular to the viewing z-axis.
• World coordinates are transformed to viewing coordinates, then viewing coordinates are projected onto the view plane.

Specifying The View CoordinatesSpecifying The View Coordinates
• To establish the viewing reference frame, we first pick a world coordinate position called the view reference point.
• This point is the origin of our viewing coordinate system. If we choose a point on an object we can think of this point as the position where we aim a camera to take a picture of the object.
Specifying The View CoordinatesSpecifying The View Coordinates
• Next, we select the positive direction for the viewing z-axis, and the orientation of the view plane, by specifying the view-plane normal vector, N.
• We choose a world coordinate position P and this point establishes the direction for N.
• OpenGL establishes the direction for N using the point P as a look at point relative to the viewing coordinate origin.

• Finally, we choose the up direction for the view by specifying view-up vector V.
• This vector is used to establish the positive direction for the yv axis.
• The vector V is perpendicular to N.• Using N and V, we can compute a
third vector U, perpendicular to both N and V, to define the direction for the xv axis.

To obtain a series of views of a scene , we can keep the the view reference point fixed and change the direcion of N. This corresponds to generating views as we move around the viewing coordinate origin.

Transformation From World To Transformation From World To Viewing CoordinatesViewing Coordinates
Conversion of object descriptions from world to viewing coordinates is equivalent to transformation that superimpoes the viewing reference frame onto the world frame using the translation and rotation.

ProjectionsProjections
• Once WC description of the objects in a scene are converted to VC we can project the 3D objects onto 2D view-plane.
• Two types of projections:
-Parallel Projection
-Perspective Projection
Classical ViewingsClassical Viewings
• Hand drawings : Determined by a specific relationship between the object and the viewer.
Parallel ProjectionsParallel Projections
Coordinate Positions are transformed to the view plane along parallel lines.

Parallel ProjectionsParallel Projections
• Orthographic parallel projection The projection is perpendicular to the view plane.
• Oblique parallel projecion The parallel projection is not perpendicular to the view plane.
Orthographic Parallel ProjectionOrthographic Parallel Projection
Oblique Parallel ProjectionOblique Parallel Projection
– The projectors are still ortogonal to the projection plane– But the projection plane can have any orientation with
respect to the object.– It is used extensively in architectural and mechanical design.
Oblique Parallel ProjectionOblique Parallel Projection
• Preserve parallel lines but not angles– Isometric view : Projection plane is placed
symmetrically with respect to the three principal faces that meet at a corner of object.
– Dimetric view : Symmetric with two faces.– Trimetric view : General case.

Perspective ProjectionsPerspective Projections
• First discovered by Donatello, Brunelleschi, and DaVinci during Renaissance
• Objects closer to viewer look larger• Parallel lines appear to converge to single
point
Perspective ProjectionsPerspective Projections
In perspective projection object positions are transformed to the view plane along lines that converge to a point called the projection reference point (or center of projection)
Perspective ProjectionsPerspective Projections
• In the real world, objects exhibit perspective foreshortening: distant objects appear smaller
• The basic situation:
When we do 3-D graphics, we think of the screen as a 2-D window onto the 3-D world:
How tall shouldthis bunny be?

The geometry of the situation is that of similar triangles. View from above:

Perspective ProjectionsPerspective Projections
• When a camera used to take a picture, the type of lens used determines how much of the scene is caught on the film.
• In 3D viewing, a rectangular view window in the view plane is used to the same effect. Edges of the view window are parallel to the xv-yv axes and window boundary positions are specified in viewing coordinates.

ClippingClipping
• An algorithm for 3D clipping identifies and saves all surface segments within the view volume for display.
• All parts of object that are outside the view volume are discarded.
Clipping LinesClipping Lines
Just like the case in two dimensions, clipping removes objects that will not be visible from the scene
The point of this is to remove computational effort
3-D clipping is achieved in two basic steps
– Discard objects that can’t be viewed
• i.e. objects that are behind the camera, outside the field of view, or too far away
– Clip objects that intersect with any clipping plane
Discard ObjectsDiscard Objects
Discarding objects that cannot possibly be seen involves comparing an objects bounding box/sphere against the dimensions of the view volume
– Can be done before or after projection
Clipping Polygon SurfaceClipping Polygon Surface
• To clip a polygon surface, we can clip the individual polygon edges.
• First we test the coordinate extends against each boundary of the view volume to determine whether the object is completely inside or completely outside of that boundary.
• If the object has intersection with the boundary then we apply intersection calculations.
Clipping Polygon SurfaceClipping Polygon Surface
• The projection operation can take place before the view- volume clipping or after clipping.
• All objects within the view volume map to the interior of the specified projection window.
• The last step is to transform the window contents to a 2D view port.
NormalisationNormalisation
The transformed volume is then normalised around position (0, 0, 0) and the z axis is reversed
Dividing Up The WorldDividing Up The World
Similar to the case in two dimensions, we divide the world into regions
This time we use a 6-bit region code to give us 27 different region codes
The bits in these regions codes are as follows:
bit 6
Far
bit 5
Near

When then simply continue as per the two dimensional line clipping algorithm

In this case we first try to eliminate the entire object using its bounding volume
Next we perform clipping on the individual polygons using the Sutherland-Hodgman algorithm we studied previously
