Linear or point-projection perspective (from Latin perspicere 'to see through') is one of two types of graphical projection perspective in the graphic arts; the other is parallel projection. [ citation needed ] [ dubious – discuss ] Linear perspective is an approximate representation, generally on a flat surface, of an image as it is seen by ...
Two-point perspective exists when the picture plane is parallel to a Cartesian scene in one axis (usually the z-axis) but not to the other two axes. If the scene being viewed consists solely of a cylinder sitting on a horizontal plane, no difference exists in the image of the cylinder between a one-point and two-point 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]).
A photo demonstrating a vanishing point at the end of the railroad. A vanishing point is a point on the image plane of a perspective rendering where the two-dimensional perspective projections of mutually parallel lines in three-dimensional space appear to converge.
2.5D (basic pronunciation two-and-a-half dimensional) perspective refers to gameplay or movement in a video game or virtual reality environment that is restricted to a two-dimensional (2D) plane with little to no access to a third dimension in a space that otherwise appears to be three-dimensional and is often simulated and rendered in a 3D digital environment.
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 ...
[2] [3] Typically in axonometric drawing, as in other types of pictorials, one axis of space is shown to be vertical. In isometric projection , the most commonly used form of axonometric projection in engineering drawing, [ 4 ] the direction of viewing is such that the three axes of space appear equally foreshortened , and there is a common ...
A picture plane in perspective drawing is a type of projection plane. With perspective drawing, the lines of sight, or projection lines, between an object and a picture plane return to a vanishing point and are not parallel. With parallel projection the lines of sight from the object to the projection plane are parallel.
