What is 3d display
methods in computer
graphics?
 3D computer graphics (in contrast to 2D
computer graphics) are graphics that
utilize a three dimensional
representation of geometric data that is
stored in the computer for the purposes
of performing calculations and rendering
2D images.Such images may be for later
display or for real-time viewing.

Parallel Projection
 A parallel projection is a projection of
an object in three-dimensional space
onto a fixed plane, known as the
projection plane or image plane,
where the rays, known as lines of
sight or projection lines, are parallel to
each other.

Parallel Projection
 In parallel projection, z co-ordinate is discarded
and parallel, lines from each vertex on the object
are extended until they intersect the view plane.
 We connect the projected vertices by line segments which
correspond to connections on the original object.As shown
in next slide a parallel projection preserves relative
proportions of objects but does not produce the realistic
views

Parallel Projection
 Project points on the object surface along parallel
lines onto the display plane.
 Parallel lines are still parallel after projection.
 Used in engineering and architectural drawings.
 Views maintain relative proportions of the object.

Parallel Projection(Oblique Projection)
In oblique projection, the direction of projection is not normal to
the projection of plane. In oblique projection, we can view the
object better than orthographic projection.

Perspective Projection
 The perspective projection, on the other
hand, produces realistic views but does not
preserve relative proportions. In perspective
projection, the lines of projection are not
parallel. Instead , they all converge at a
single point called the `center of projection'
or `projection reference point'.
 The perspective projection is perhaps the
most common projection technique familiar
to us as image formed by eye or lenses of
photographic flim on perspective projection.

The distance and angles are not preserved and parallel lines do not remain
parallel. Instead, they all converge at a single point called center of
projection or projection reference point. There are 3 types of perspective
projections:-
• One point perspective projection is simple to draw.
• Two point perspective projection gives better impression of depth.
• Three point perspective projection is most difficult to draw.

The perspective projection conveys depth information by
making distance object smalls than near one.
This is the way that our eyes and a camera lens form
images and so the displays are more realistic.
 The disadvantage is that if object have only limited variation ,
the image may not provide adequate depth information and
ambiquity apears.

Depth Cueing
 Depth cueing is implemented by having objects blend into the background color
with increasing distance from the viewer. The range of distances over which this
blending occurs is controlled by the sliders.
 To create realistic image, the depth information is important so that we can easily
identify, for a particular viewing direction, which is the front and which is the back
of displayed objects. The depth of an object can be represented by the intensity of
the image. The parts of the objects closest to the viewing position are displayed
with the highest intensities and objects farther away are displayed with
decreasing intensities. This effect is known as `depth cueing'.

Depth Cueing
 To easily identify the front and back of display objects.
 Depth information can be included using various
methods.
 A simple method to vary the intensity of objects
according to their distance from the viewing position.
 Eg: lines closest to the viewing position are displayed
with the higher intensities and lines farther away are
displayed with lower intensities.

Visible line and surface identification
 It is possible to clarify the depth relationships in a wire frame display by identifying visible lines.The
visible line can be displayed by dashed lines or not display at all. This is illustrated in Figure.

 The visible surface identification can be done with
visible surface algorithms.
 They establish visibility pixel by pixel across the viewing
plane or determine surfaces for object as a whole.
 Once the visible, surfaces are identified we can apply
surface rendering techniques on them to obscure the
hidden surfaces.

1.Hidden-surface problem
There are two approaches for removing hidden surface problems
1.1 Object-Space method (physical coordinate system) and
1.2 Image-space method. (physical coordinate system)
• Depth Buffer (Z-Buffer) Method
• Scan-Line Method
• Area-Subdivision Method
• Back-Face Detection
• A-Buffer Method
• Depth Sorting Method
• Binary Space Partition (BSP) Trees
When we want to display a 3D object on a 2D screen, we need to identify those
parts of a screen that are visible from a chosen viewing position.

Highlight the visible lines or display
them in different color
Display nonvisible lines as dashed lines
Remove the nonvisible lines

Surface Rendering
 Surface rendering involves setting the surface intensity of objects
according to the lighting conditions in the scene and according to
assigned surface characteristics. The lighting conditions specify the
intensity and positions of light sources and the general background
illumination required for a scene .
 On the other hand the surface characteristics of objects specify the
degree of transparency and smoothness or roughness of the
surface; usually the surface rendering methods are combined with
perspective and visible surface identification to generate a high
degree of realism in a displayed scene.

Surface Rendering
Set the surface intensity of objects according to
 Lighting conditions in the scene
 Assigned surface characteristics
 Lighting specifications include the intensity and positions
of light sources and the general background illumination
required for a scene.
Surface properties include degree of transparency and
how rough or smooth of the surfaces
