  2. Vanishing point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanishing_point

    The vanishing point may also be referred to as the "direction point", as lines having the same directional vector, say D, will have the same vanishing point. Mathematically, let q ≡ ( x , y , f ) be a point lying on the image plane, where f is the focal length (of the camera associated with the image), and let v q ≡ ( ⁠ x / h ⁠ , ⁠ y ...

  3. Locus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locus_(mathematics)

    Each curve in this example is a locus defined as the conchoid of the point P and the line l.In this example, P is 8 cm from l. In geometry, a locus (plural: loci) (Latin word for "place", "location") is a set of all points (commonly, a line, a line segment, a curve or a surface), whose location satisfies or is determined by one or more specified conditions.

  4. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_from_a_point_to_a...

    The distance (or perpendicular distance) from a point to a line is the shortest distance from a fixed point to any point on a fixed infinite line in Euclidean geometry. It is the length of the line segment which joins the point to the line and is perpendicular to the line. The formula for calculating it can be derived and expressed in several ways.

  5. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    The principal vanishing point is the vanishing point of all horizontal lines perpendicular to the picture plane. The vanishing points of all horizontal lines lie on the horizon line. If, as is often the case, the picture plane is vertical, all vertical lines are drawn vertically, and have no finite vanishing point on the picture plane.

  6. Complete intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete_intersection

    A classic example of this is the twisted cubic in : it is a smooth local complete intersection meaning in any chart it can be expressed as the vanishing locus of two polynomials, but globally it is expressed by the vanishing locus of more than two polynomials.

    The strange car-chase movie 'Vanishing Point' has had an equally strange afterlife, as detailed in this new book about the film and its star, a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T 440.

  8. Reverse perspective - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_perspective

    Technically, the vanishing points are placed outside the painting with the illusion that they are "in front of" the painting. The name Byzantine perspective comes from the use of this perspective in Byzantine and Russian Orthodox icons ; it is also found in the art of many pre-Renaissance cultures, and was sometimes used in Cubism and other ...
