    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 ...

  3. Vanishing point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanishing_point

    In 5-point perspective the vanishing points are mapped into a circle with 4 vanishing points at the cardinal headings N, W, S, E and one at the circle's origin. A reverse perspective is a drawing with vanishing points that are placed outside the painting with the illusion that they are "in front of" the painting.

    [1] It can give the impression that an object is tall and strong while the viewer is childlike or powerless. [2] A worm's-eye view commonly uses three-point perspective, with one vanishing point on top, one on the left, and one on the right. [3] A tree from a worm's-eye view

  5. Camera lucida - Wikipedia

    If the right lens is inserted, so that the chosen distance roughly equals the distance of the drawing surface, both images can be viewed in good focus simultaneously. [ citation needed ] If white paper is used with the camera lucida , the superimposition of the paper with the scene tends to wash out the scene, making it difficult to view.

  7. Perspectivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspectivity

    Let P n−m−1 be an (n − m − 1)-dimensional subspace of R n with no points in common with either S m or T m. For each point X of S m, the space L spanned by X and P n-m-1 meets T m in a point Y = f P (X). This correspondence f P is also called a perspectivity. [6] The central perspectivity described above is the case with n = 2 and m = 1.

  8. Picture plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_plane

    In painting, photography, graphical perspective and descriptive geometry, a picture plane is an image plane located between the "eye point" (or oculus) and the object being viewed and is usually coextensive to the material surface of the work.

  9. Panoramic photography - Wikipedia

    The exposure usually takes a fraction of a second. Typically, these cameras capture a field of view between 110° and 140° and an aspect ratio of 2:1 to 4:1. The images produced occupy between 1.5 and 3 times as much space on the negative as the standard 24 mm x 36 mm 35 mm frame. Cameras of this type include the Widelux, Noblex, and the ...
