1What is “Perspective?”• A mechanism for portraying 3D in 2D• “True Perspective” corresponds toprojection onto a plane• “True Perspective” corresponds to an idealcamera imageViewTransformations• 3D world– Determine 3D camera viewpoint andorientation– Project 3D to 2D– Map 2D representation to physical device(Go to notes and continue to next slide)ViewTransformations• ViewportPositioning the Camera• Use gluLookAt to specify– Eye location– “Look-at” point– “up” vector• gluLookAt(10,10,10,1,2,3,0,0,1);– Eye is (10,10,10)– Look at point is (1,2,3)– Up is (0,0,1)• Usually done in GL_PROJECTION matrix and combinedwith perspective matrix3D Viewing ProjectionsOrthographic2Engineering DrawingAASection AAIsometric ProjectionIsometric ViewCavalier ProjectionCabinet ProjectionPerspective ProjectionEye = eGaze = LookAt = gUp = yDistance to viewplane = dZ = distance to object on z axisysgeydzviewplane3FrustumPerspectiveVanishing Points:One Point PerspectiveVanishing Points:Two Point PerspectivePerspective in ArtFirst ever painting (Trinity with the Virgin, St. John and Donors)done in perspective by Masaccio, in 1427.Perspective in ArtA painting (The Piazza of St. Mark, Venice) done byCanaletto in 1735-45 in one-point perspective.4Perspective in ArtPainting in two point perspective by Edward HopperThe Mansard Roof 1923; Watercolor on paper, 13 3/4 x 19 inches; The Brooklyn Museum, New YorkPerspective in ArtA painting (City Night, 1926) by Georgia O'Keefe.Approximately in three-point perspective.Many Kinds ofPerspective Used• Mechanical Engineering• Cartography• ArtPerspective in Art• Naïve (wrong)• Egyptian• Cubist (unrealistic)• Esher• Miro• MatisseEgyptian Frontalism• Head profile• Body front• Eyes full• Rigid styleUccello's (1392-1475)handdrawing was thefirst extant complexgeometrical formrendered according tothe laws of linearperspective(Perspective Study ofa Chalice, Drawing,Gabinetto dei Disegni,Uffizi, Florence, ca1430 1440)245Perspective in Cubism Braque,GeorgesWomanwith aGuitarSorgues,autumn1913Perspective in CubismPablo Picaso,Madre con niñomuerto (1937)27Pablo PicasoCabeza de mujerllorando conpañuelo28Perspective (Mural) GamesM C Esher,AnotherWorld II(1947)PerspectiveM.C.
