  2. Vertical and horizontal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_and_horizontal

    In the three-dimensional case, the situation is more complicated as now one has horizontal and vertical planes in addition to horizontal and vertical lines. Consider a point P and designate a direction through P as vertical. A plane which contains P and is normal to the designated direction is the horizontal plane at P.

  3. Line detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_detection

    The Hough transform [3] can be used to detect lines and the output is a parametric description of the lines in an image, for example ρ = r cos(θ) + c sin(θ). [1] If there is a line in a row and column based image space, it can be defined ρ, the distance from the origin to the line along a perpendicular to the line, and θ, the angle of the perpendicular projection from the origin to the ...

    Verticalhorizontal illusion: The Vertical-horizontal illusion is the tendency for observers to overestimate the length of a vertical line relative to a horizontal line of the same length. Vista paradox: Visual tilt effects: Wagon-wheel effect: White's illusion: Wundt illusion: The two red vertical lines are both straight, but they may look ...

  5. Line (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_(graphics)

    Another use of line in graphics is the ability to help suggest a tone or feeling in a work. Vertical lines can be used to create a sense of strength or stability. An example of this could be a row of trees in a picture creating a series of vertical lines. Horizontal lines can be used to create a feeling of calm, peace or passiveness.

  6. Rule of thirds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_thirds

    The photograph demonstrates the application of the rule of thirds. The horizon in the photograph is on the horizontal line dividing the lower third of the photo from the upper two-thirds. The tree is at the intersection of two lines, sometimes called a power point [1] or a crash point. [2]

  7. Box-drawing characters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box-drawing_characters

    Box-drawing characters, also known as line-drawing characters, are a form of semigraphics widely used in text user interfaces to draw various geometric frames and boxes. These characters are characterized by being designed to be connected horizontally and/or vertically with adjacent characters, which requires proper alignment.

  8. Vertical–horizontal illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verticalhorizontal_illusion

    The verticalhorizontal illusion. The verticalhorizontal illusion is the tendency for observers to overestimate the length of a vertical line relative to a horizontal line of the same length. [1] This involves a bisecting component that causes the bisecting line to appear longer than the line that is bisected.

  9. Composition (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_(visual_arts)

    A line's angle and its relationship to the frame's size influence the perspective of the image. Horizontal lines, commonly found in landscape photography, can give the impression of calm, tranquility, and space. An image filled with strong vertical lines tends to have the appearance of height and grandeur.
