Let x, y, and z refer to a coordinate system with the x- and y-axis in the sensor plane. Denote the coordinates of the point P on the object by ,,, the coordinates of the image point of P on the sensor plane by x and y and the coordinates of the projection (optical) centre by ,,.
A collineation is thus an isomorphism between projective spaces, or an automorphism from a projective space to itself. Some authors restrict the definition of collineation to the case where it is an automorphism. [1] The set of all collineations of a space to itself form a group, called the collineation group.
A mapping of a geometry to itself which sends lines to lines is called a collineation; it preserves the collinearity property. The linear maps (or linear functions) of vector spaces , viewed as geometric maps, map lines to lines; that is, they map collinear point sets to collinear point sets and so, are collineations.
If α is an automorphism of K, then the collineation given by (x 0, x 1, x 2) → (x 0 α, x 1 α, x 2 α) is an automorphic collineation. The fundamental theorem of projective geometry says that all the collineations of PG(2, K) are compositions of homographies and automorphic collineations. Automorphic collineations are planar collineations.
By the Fundamental theorem of projective geometry, the full collineation group (or automorphism group, or symmetry group) is the projective linear group PGL(3, 2), [a] Hirschfeld 1979, p. 131 [3] This is a well-known group of order 168 = 2 3 ·3·7, the next non-abelian simple group after A 5 of order 60 (ordered by size).

The last image we have of Patrick Cagey is of his first moments as a free man. He has just walked out of a 30-day drug treatment center in Georgetown, Kentucky, dressed in gym clothes and carrying a Nike duffel bag. The moment reminds his father of Patrick’s graduation from college, and he takes a picture of his son with his cell phone.
In projective geometry, the harmonic conjugate point of a point on the real projective line with respect to two other points is defined by the following construction: Given three collinear points A, B, C , let L be a point not lying on their join and let any line through C meet LA, LB at M, N respectively.
