  2. Curvilinear perspective - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curvilinear_perspective

    Curvilinear barrel distortion Curvilinear pincushion distortion. Curvilinear perspective, also five-point perspective, is a graphical projection used to draw 3D objects on 2D surfaces, for which (straight) lines on the 3D object are projected to curves on the 2D surface that are typically not straight (hence the qualifier "curvilinear" [citation needed]).

  3. Fisheye lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisheye_lens

    The Fisheye-Nikkor 8 mm f /8 has a field of view of 180° and uses 9 elements in 5 groups; it has a fixed focus and built-in filters intended for black-and-white photography. Research indicates that fewer than 1,400 lenses were built. [ 37 ]

  4. Perspective (graphical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(graphical)

    Perspective drawing is useful for representing a three-dimensional scene in a two-dimensional medium, like paper. It is based on the optical fact that for a person an object looks N times (linearly) smaller if it has been moved N times further from the eye than the original distance was.

  5. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    The classic reproduction methods involved blue and white appearances (whether white-on-blue or blue-on-white), which is why engineering drawings were long called, and even today are still often called, "blueprints" or "bluelines", even though those terms are anachronistic from a literal perspective, since most copies of engineering drawings ...

  6. Outline of drawing and drawings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_drawing_and...

    Elements of art – group of aspects of a work of art used in teaching and analysis, in combination with the principles of art. They are texture, form, line, color, value, and shape. Perspective – the principle of creating the illusion of 3-dimensionality on a 2-dimensional source such as paper. This is achieved by using one or more vanishing ...

  7. Vision in fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vision_in_fish

    Usually, light enters through the fish eye at the cornea and passes through the pupil in order to reach the lens. Most fish species have a fixed size of the pupil while a few species have a muscular iris that allows for the adjustment of the pupil diameter. Fish eyes have a more spherical lens than other terrestrial vertebrates.

  8. Geometrical-optical illusions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrical-optical_illusions

    Ponzo illusion in a purely schematic form and, below, with perspective clues. However, almost all geometrical optical illusions have components that are at present not amenable to physiological explanations. [4] The subject, therefore, is a fertile field for propositions based in the disciplines of perception and cognition. [5]

  9. Axonometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometric_projection

    While advantageous for architectural drawings, where measurements must be taken directly from the image, the result is a perceived distortion, since unlike perspective projection, this is not how human vision or photography normally works. It also can easily result in situations where depth and altitude are difficult to gauge, as is shown in ...
