  2. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    A 3D projection (or graphical projection) is a design technique used to display a three-dimensional (3D) object on a two-dimensional (2D) surface. These projections rely on visual perspective and aspect analysis to project a complex object for viewing capability on a simpler plane.

  3. Projection mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_mapping

    Projection mapping, similar to video mapping and spatial augmented reality, is a projection technique [1] [2] used to turn objects, often irregularly shaped, into display surfaces for video projection. The objects may be complex industrial landscapes, such as buildings, small indoor objects, or theatrical stages.

  4. Scientific visualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_visualization

    Volume rendering is a technique used to display a 2D projection of a 3D discretely sampled data set. A typical 3D data set is a group of 2D slice images acquired by a CT or MRI scanner. Usually these are acquired in a regular pattern (e.g., one slice every millimeter) and usually have a regular number of image pixels in a regular pattern.

  5. Projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection

    Projection (set theory), one of two closely related types of functions or operations in set theory; Projection (measure theory), use of a projection map in measure theory; 3D projection, any method of mapping three-dimensional points to a two-dimensional plane; Vector projection, orthogonal projection of a vector onto a straight line

  6. Topographic map (neuroanatomy) - Wikipedia

    Again, adjacent areas on the skin are represented by adjacent neurons in all aforementioned structures. This projection pattern has been termed somatotopy. One common diagram of the somatotopic map is the cortical homunculus. This illustration is a fairly accurate representation of how much cortical area represents each body part or region.

  7. 3D rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_rendering

    Perspective projection. The shaded three-dimensional objects must be flattened so that the display device - namely a monitor - can display it in only two dimensions, this process is called 3D projection. This is done using projection and, for most applications, perspective projection. The basic idea behind perspective projection is that objects ...

  8. Planar projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planar_projection

    Planar projections are the subset of 3D graphical projections constructed by linearly mapping points in three-dimensional space to points on a two-dimensional projection plane. The projected point on the plane is chosen such that it is collinear with the corresponding three-dimensional point and the centre of projection .

  9. Image plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_plane

    In this case, the viewing transformation is a projection that maps the world onto the image plane. A rectangular region of this plane, called the viewing window or viewport, maps to the monitor. This establishes the mapping between pixels on the monitor and points (or rather, rays) in the 3D
