Finding Camera projection matrix from known input and output

Lets say I have a rectangle with known coordinates in 3D scene, and I'm projecting it using pin point camera to the plane (screen). You can imagine it deforms on the screen per camera transformation ...

What fields should a camera class have?

For a good and scalable project structure, what fields would you add to a camera class, apart from its position and orientation? Should I add the near and far planes? Or should that be global, what ...

3D homogenous coordinates versus 4D homogenous coordinates

We know that any 2D point $(x, y) $which represents as 3D homogeneous coordinates is of the form $(x, y, 1)$ which is the points of projective plane $P^2.$ If I use the same concepts for 3D points $(...

Existence of vanishing point

Consider the following example of perspective projection: I have one railway track with two parallel lines meeting at the point $X$ at infinity which is the theoretical approach. This X is called the ...

3D shearing w. r. t $x$-axis [closed]

Shearing in $X$ axis is achieved by using the following shearing equations- $X_{new} = X_{old}, Y_{new} = Y_{old} + Sh_y × X_{old}, Z_{new} = Z_{old} + Sh_z × X_{old}.$ My question is during $Y_{new}...

Difference between 2D and 3D pipeline

2D transformation and viewing: The camera projects the 2D world co-ordinate $(x_w, y_w)$ on its projection plane which co-ordinates $(x_v, y_v)$. 3D transformation and viewing: The camera projects the ...

Difference between transformation and projection? [closed]

We know that world coordinates $(x_w, y_w)$ transform to viewport coordinates $(x_v, y_v)$ which are the physical device coordinates. And during projection, any point $(x, y, z)$ projects to $(x, y)$ ...

Why shearing coefficients multiplying by y? [closed]

We know that shear is transformation that distorts the shape of the object. Shear relative to X-axis that is $y=0$ line can be written as: $x'=x+sh_x.y, y'=y$ My question is why $sh_x$ is multiplying ...

Why does my self-written rendering engine make further away objects look larger?

I am writing a very simple rendering engine. I have already made a few tests, but somehow the images it creates look wrong. Objects that are further away from the camera look larger than objects ...

Consistent Video Depth Estimation from Monocular Lens to approximate LiDAR?

If the iPhone had LiDAR sensors, it would be possible to generate a 3D point cloud that you could theoretically use to furnish a 3D AR reconstruction of your surroundings. E.g. you could create an AR ...

Does rotating object inside unit cube [-1,1] by homogenous matrix move it outside unit cube

I am just trying to rotate my pointcloud object which is inside the unit cube ([-1,1] in all x,y,z axis). What I did is use the basic rotation matrix from wiki and extend it to homogenuous 4x4 matrix (...
