  2. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    The foreshortening factor (1/2 in this example) is inversely proportional to the tangent of the angle (63.43° in this example) between the projection plane (colored brown) and the projection lines (dotted). Front view of the same. Oblique projection is a type of parallel projection: it projects an image by intersecting parallel rays (projectors)

  3. Axonometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometric_projection

    [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 ...

  4. Motion capture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_capture

    Motion capture of two pianists' right hands playing the same piece (slow-motion, no-sounds) [1] Two repetitions of a walking sequence recorded using motion capture [2]. Motion capture (sometimes referred as mo-cap or mocap, for short) is the process of recording the movement of objects or people.

  5. 2D computer graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2D_computer_graphics

    In 2-dimensional space, a rotation can be simply described by an angle θ of rotation, but it can be also represented by the 4 entries of a rotation matrix with 2 rows and 2 columns. In 3-dimensional space, every rotation can be interpreted as a rotation by a given angle about a single fixed axis of rotation (see Euler's rotation theorem ), and ...

  6. Six degrees of freedom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_degrees_of_freedom

    Mnemonics to remember angle names. The six degrees of freedom of a mobile unit are divided in two motional classes as described below. Translational envelopes: Moving forward and backward on the X-axis. (Surge) Moving left and right on the Y-axis. (Sway) Moving up and down on the Z-axis. (Heave) Rotational envelopes: Tilting side to side on the ...

  7. Phantasmagoria (video game) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantasmagoria_(video_game)

    The player can click certain areas of the screen to control her movements or make her explore specific places and objects. The camera angles and rooms change depending on where the player moves Adrienne. [6] The game includes only four mouse commands: look (which changes to "talk to" when selecting a person), pick up item, use item, and walk. [4]

  8. Triangular function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_function

    Often this is an isosceles triangle of height 1 and base 2 in which case it is referred to as the triangular function. Triangular functions are useful in signal processing and communication systems engineering as representations of idealized signals, and the triangular function specifically as an integral transform kernel function from which ...

  9. Non-uniform rational B-spline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-uniform_rational_B-spline

    Rulers were used for straight lines, compasses for circles, and protractors for angles. But many shapes, such as the freeform curve of a ship's bow, could not be drawn with these tools. Although such curves could be drawn freehand at the drafting board, shipbuilders often needed a life-size version which could not be done by hand.
