• A Warrior of Light needs patience and speed
at the same time.
• The two biggest mistakes of a strategy are
a] to act prematurely
b] to let the opportunity pass by.
• To avoid making these mistakes, the warrior
copes with each situation as if it were unique,
and applies no formulas, prescriptions or the
opinions of others.
- Warrior of light by Paulo Cohelo
Lecture Contents:
• Projections & Views
• Projection types
• Practice
• Projection:
the production of a two-dimensional image of a three-
dimensional object
– Orthographic projection
• Oblique projection
– One plane of the image is set parallel to the plane of projection.
– This creates a true shape image of the chosen plane.
– but lengths along z-axis are drawn at angle using a reduction factor
• Types of oblique projection
• Cavalier projection
– Full depth, No Z-scaling
• Cabinet projection
– Half depth, 0.5 Z-scaling
• General projection
– Other depths, other Z-scaling
• Cavalier projection
– Cavalier means a horseman
– the way the things seen from high point
– Full depth, No Z-scaling.
– Gives correct perception of depth
• Cabinet projection
– Famous in furniture industry
– Was used in early video games
– Half depth, 0.5 Z-scaling
– Easily drawn on paper
• Types of Parallel projections
– Oblique projection
– Orthographic projection
• Types of Parallel projections
– Oblique projection
– Orthographic projection
• Multiview Projections
• Axonometric projection
• Orthographic projection (type of Parallel projection )
– The word comes from the Greek ὀρθός (orthos), meaning “straight”
– It is a form of parallel projection, where the view direction is orthogonal to the
projection plane
– Orthographic Projection gives us a very clear method of communicating ideas
and objects. It is a method that every engineer in the world recognizes.
Because of this we can reproduce any object drawn Orthographically.
• Multiview Projections (type of Orthographic projection )
– Multi-view simply means “multiple views”
– So we use several 2D views(pictures) of the object instead of a single
view
– As it is a type of Orthographic projection so this we need to make
these views at 90 degrees
– up to six pictures of an object are produced, with each projection
plane parallel to one of the coordinate axes of the object.
