  2. Vector projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_projection

    Whenever they don't coincide, the inner product is used instead of the dot product in the formal definitions of projection and rejection. For a three-dimensional inner product space, the notions of projection of a vector onto another and rejection of a vector from another can be generalized to the notions of projection of a vector onto a plane ...

  3. Vector fields in cylindrical and spherical coordinates

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_fields_in...

    ρ is the length of the vector projected onto the xy-plane, φ is the angle between the projection of the vector onto the xy-plane (i.e. ρ) and the positive x-axis (0 ≤ φ < 2π), z is the regular z-coordinate. (ρ, φ, z) is given in Cartesian coordinates by:

  4. Projection (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_(linear_algebra)

    A square matrix is called a projection matrix if it is equal to its square, i.e. if =. [2]: p. 38 A square matrix is called an orthogonal projection matrix if = = for a real matrix, and respectively = = for a complex matrix, where denotes the transpose of and denotes the adjoint or Hermitian transpose of .

  5. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    If the normal of the viewing plane (the camera direction) is parallel to one of the primary axes (which is the x, y, or z axis), the mathematical transformation is as follows; To project the 3D point , , onto the 2D point , using an orthographic projection parallel to the y axis (where positive y represents forward direction - profile view ...

  6. Vector area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_area

    The projected area onto a plane is given by the dot product of the vector area S and the target plane unit normal m̂: = ^ For example, the projected area onto the xy-plane is equivalent to the z-component of the vector area, and is also equal to = | | ⁡ where θ is the angle between the plane normal n̂ and the z-axis.

  7. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    The origin and vector direction of the projectors (also called projection lines) differs, as explained below. In first-angle projection, the parallel projectors originate as if radiated from behind the viewer and pass through the 3D object to project a 2D image onto the orthogonal plane behind it.

  8. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    Comparison of several types of graphical projection, including elevation and plan views. To render each such picture, a ray of sight (also called a projection line, projection ray or line of sight) towards the object is chosen, which determines on the object various points of interest (for instance, the points that are visible when looking at the object along the ray of sight); those points of ...

  9. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    The projectors in oblique projection intersect the projection plane at an oblique angle to produce the projected image, as opposed to the perpendicular angle used in orthographic projection. Mathematically, the parallel projection of the point ( x , y , z ) {\displaystyle (x,y,z)} on the x y {\displaystyle xy} -plane gives ( x + a z , y + b z ...
