Projections & Views
Projection:
the production of a two-dimensional image of a three-
dimensional object
Orthographic projection
Oblique projection
One plane of the image is set parallel to the plane of projection.
This creates a true shape image of the chosen plane.
but lengths along z-axis are drawn at angle using a reduction factor
Types of oblique projection
Cavalier projection
Full depth, No Z-scaling
Cabinet projection
Half depth, 0.5 Z-scaling
General projection
Other depths, other Z-scaling
Cavalier projection
Cavalier means a horseman
the way the things seen from high point
Full depth, No Z-scaling.
Gives correct perception of depth
Cabinet projection
Famous in furniture industry
Was used in early video games
Half depth, 0.5 Z-scaling
Easily drawn on paper

Multiview Projections
Axonometric projection
Orthographic projection (type of Parallel projection )
The word comes from the Greek ʌɽʊʎ (orthos), meaning ͞straight͟
It is a form of parallel projection, where the view direction is orthogonal to the
projection plane
Orthographic Projection gives us a very clear method of communicating ideas
and objects. It is a method that every engineer in the world recognizes.
Because of this we can reproduce any object drawn Orthographically.
Multiview Projections (type of Orthographic projection )
Multi-view simply means ͞multiple views͟
So we use several 2D views(pictures) of the object instead of a single
view
As it is a type of Orthographic projection so this we need to make
these views at 90 degrees
up to six pictures of an object are produced, with each projection
plane parallel to one of the coordinate axes of the object.
