Geometric Transformations PDF

This document discusses different types of geometric transformations including object transformations like translation, rotation, and scaling as well as coordinate system transformations. It provides examples of scaling a triangle by a factor of 2, translating a rectangle by adding 40 units to the x-coordinate and 30 units to the y-coordinate, and rotating a point P(40,20) about the origin by 45 degrees. Geometric transformations are used to alter the size, position, and orientation of objects.

Geometric Transformations

 Alternatives
 Object transformation - Our focus area is object transformation…
 Coordinate system transformation
 Object transformation types
 Euclidean transformation e.g. Translation, rotation, reflection
 Affine transformation e.g. Scaling, shear

 Projective transformation - Most general linear transformations that use homogenous coordinates
…Object transformations
 Scaling
 Changing the dimensions to alter the size of drawing
 For example we have a triangle with vertices A=(4,0), B=(1,2) & C=(3,5). By using a scaling
factor of 2, the scaling matrix would be , , Sx being the scaling factor in X axis, Sy-in Y
axis
Point A would become [4 0] 2 0

0 2 = [8 0] = A1

Point B would become [1 2] ] 2 0

0 2 = [2 4] = B1

Point C [3 5 ] 2 0

0 2 = [6 10] = C1
Translation
 Moving a drawing or model across the screen is called translation.
 Accomplished by adding a moving distance to the coordinates of each corner point
 e.g. A rectangle being moved by adding 40 units to X coordinate and 30 units in Y
coordinate
 To translate by (Tx, Ty), every points’ X & Y will be replaced as
 X1 = X + Tx
 Y1 = Y + Ty

X1 = 10+40=50 ; Y1=10+30=40
(1,1)  (5,4)
Rotation
 Rotation about a fixed pivot point
 Lets consider a point P(40,20) is to be rotated about origin through an angle of 45o
 The rotation matrix to be deployed is

 Computation of new coordinate P’ will be [40 20] cos45 sin45


 -sin 45 cos 45
= [14.14 42.42]
