    A worm's-eye view is a description of the view of a scene from below that a worm might have if it could see. It is the opposite of a bird's-eye view. [1]It can give the impression that an object is tall and strong while the viewer is childlike or powerless.

  4. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    For example, if railways are pictured with perspective projection, they appear to converge towards a single point, called the vanishing point. Photographic lenses and the human eye work in the same way, therefore the perspective projection looks the most realistic. [ 5 ]

  5. Picture plane - Wikipedia

    First-angle is drawing the object sides based on where they land. Example, looking at the front side, rotate the object 90 degrees to the right. What is seen will be drawn to the right of the front side. Third-angle is drawing the object sides based on where they are. Example, looking at the front side, rotate the object 90 degrees to the right.

    An example of a multiview orthographic drawing from a US Patent (1913), showing two views of the same object. Third angle projection is used.

  9. Perspectivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspectivity

    This composition is a bijective map of the points of S 2 onto itself which preserves collinear points and is called a perspective collineation (central collineation in more modern terminology). [7] Let φ be a perspective collineation of S 2. Each point of the line of intersection of S 2 and T 2 will be fixed by φ and this line is called the ...
