Also, we have explored the scan-line algorithms for displaying output primitives on a raster device. Now, we take a look at transformation operations that we can apply to objects to reposition or resize them. These operations are also used in the viewing routines that convert a world-coordinate scene description to a display for an output device. In addition, they are used in a variety of other applications, such as computer-aided design (CAD) and computer animation. An architect, for example, creates a layout by arranging the orientation and size of the component parts of a design, and a computer animator develops a video sequence by moving the “camera” position or the objects in a scene along specified paths. Operations that are applied to the geometric description of an object to change its position, orientation, or size are called geometric transformations. Sometimes geometric transformations are also referred to as modeling transformations, but some graphics packages make a From Chapter 7 of Computer Graphics with OpenGL®, Fourth Edition, Donald Hearn, M.

Two-Dimensional Geometric Transformations distinction between the two. In general, modeling transformations are used to con- struct a scene or to give the hierarchical description of a complex object that is com- posed of several parts, which in turn could be composed of simpler parts, and so forth. For example, an aircraft consists of wings, tail, fuselage, engine, and other com- ponents, each of which can be specified in terms of second-level components, and so on, down the hierarchy of component parts. Thus, the aircraft can be described in terms of these components and an associated “modeling” transformation for each one that describes how that component is to be fitted into the overall aircraft design. Geometric transformations, on the other hand, can be used to describe how objects might move around in a scene during an animation sequence or simply to view them from another angle. Therefore, some graphics packages provide two sets of transforma- tion routines, while other packages have a single set of functions that can be used for both geometric transformations and modeling transformations. 1 Basic Two-Dimensional Geometric Transformations The geometric-transformation functions that are available in all graphics pack- ages are those for translation, rotation, and scaling. Other useful transformation routines that are sometimes included in a package are reflection and shearing operations. To introduce the general concepts associated with geometric trans- formations, we first consider operations in two dimensions. Once we under- stand the basic concepts, we can easily write routines to perform geometric trans- formations on objects in a two-dimensional scene. Two-Dimensional Translation y We perform a translation on a single coordinate point by adding offsets to its coordinates so as to generate a new coordinate position. In effect, we are moving the original point position along a straight-line path to its new location. Simi- larly, a translation is applied to an object that is defined with multiple coordinate PЈ positions, such as a quadrilateral, by relocating all the coordinate positions by the same displacement along parallel paths. Then the complete object is displayed at T the new location. To translate a two-dimensional position, we add translation distances tx and P ′ ′ ty to the original coordinates ( x, y) to obtain the new coordinate position ( x , y ) x as shown in Figure 1. ′ ′ F I G U R E 1 x = x + tx, y = y + ty (1) P Translating a point from position to The translation distance pair (t , t ) is called a translation vector or shift vector. position P′ using a translation x y vector T. We can express Equations 1 as a single matrix equation by using the follow- ing column vectors to represent coordinate positions and the translation vector: ′ x ′ x tx P = , P = ′ , T = (2) · y ¸ · y ¸ · ty ¸ This allows us to write the two-dimensional translation equations in the matrix form P′ = P + T (3) Two-Dimensional Geometric Transformations y 10 5 0 5 10 15 20 x (a) y 10 5 F I G U R E 2 0 5 10 15 20 x Moving a polygon from position (a) to position (b) with the (b) translation vector ( −5.50, 3.75). Translation is a rigid-body transformation that moves objects without defor- mation. That is, every point on the object is translated by the same amount. A straight-line segment is translated by applying Equation 3 to each of the two line endpoints and redrawing the line between the new endpoint positions. A polygon is translated similarly. We add a translation vector to the coordinate position of each vertex and then regenerate the polygon using the new set of vertex coordinates. Figure 2 illustrates the application of a specified translation vector to move an object from one position to another. The following routine illustrates the translation operations. An input transla- tion vector is used to move the n vertices of a polygon from one world-coordinate position to another, and OpenGL routines are used to regenerate the translated polygon. class wcPt2D { public: GLfloat x, y; }; void translatePolygon (wcPt2D * verts, GLint nVerts, GLfloat tx, GLfloat ty) { GLint k; for (k = 0; k < nVerts; k++) { verts [k].x = verts [k].x + tx; verts [k].y = verts [k].y + ty; } glBegin (GL_POLYGON); for (k = 0; k < nVerts; k++) glVertex2f (verts [k].x, verts [k].y); glEnd ( ); } If we want to delete the original polygon, we could display it in the back- ground color before translating it. Other methods for deleting picture components Two-Dimensional Geometric Transformations are available in some graphics packages. Also, if we want to save the original poly- gon position, we can store the translated positions in a different array. Similar methods are used to translate other objects. To change the position of a circle or ellipse, we translate the center coordinates and redraw the figure in the new location. For a spline curve, we translate the points that define the curve path and then reconstruct the curve sections between the new coordinate positions. Two-Dimensional Rotation We generate a rotation transformation of an object by specifying a rotation axis and a rotation angle. All points of the object are then transformed to new positions u by rotating the points through the specified angle about the rotation axis. yr A two-dimensional rotation of an object is obtained by repositioning the object along a circular path in the xy plane. In this case, we are rotating the object about a rotation axis that is perpendicular to the xy plane (parallel to the coordinate θ xr z axis). Parameters for the two-dimensional rotation are the rotation angle and a position ( x , y ), called the rotation point (or pivot point), about which the FIGURE 3 r r object is to be rotated (Figure 3). The pivot point is the intersection position Rotation of an object through angle θ of the rotation axis with the xy plane. A positive value for the angle θ defines a about the pivot point (xr , yr ). counterclockwise rotation about the pivot point, as in Figure 3, and a negative value rotates objects in the clockwise direction. To simplify the explanation of the basic method, we first determine the trans- formation equations for rotation of a point position P when the pivot point is at the coordinate origin. The angular and coordinate relationships of the origi- nal and transformed point positions are shown in Figure 4. In this figure, r is the constant distance of the point from the origin, angle φ is the original angu- (xЈ, yЈ) lar position of the point from the horizontal, and θ is the rotation angle. Using standard trigonometric identities, we can express the transformed coordinates in r terms of angles θ and φ as u ′ r (x, y) x = r cos(φ + θ) = r cos φ cos θ − r sin φ sin θ (4) ′ = + = + f y r sin(φ θ) r cos φ sin θ r sin φ cos θ The original coordinates of the point in polar coordinates are F I G U R E 4 x = r cos φ, y = r sin φ (5) Rotation of a point from position ( x , y) to position ( x ′, y ′) through an angle θ Substituting expressions 5 into 4, we obtain the transformation equations for relative to the coordinate origin. The rotating a point at position ( x, y) through an angle θ about the origin: original angular displacement of the x′ = x cos θ − y sin θ point from the x axis is φ. (6) y′ = x sin θ + y cos θ With the column-vector representations 2 for coordinate positions, we can write the rotation equations in the matrix form P′ = R · P (7) where the rotation matrix is cos θ − sin θ R = (8) " sin θ cos θ # A column-vector representation for a coordinate position P, as in Equa- tions 2, is standard mathematical notation. However, early graphics systems sometimes used a row-vector representation for point positions.

  • Geometric Transformation Techniques for Digital I~Iages: a Survey
    GEOMETRIC TRANSFORMATION TECHNIQUES FOR DIGITAL I~IAGES: A SURVEY George Walberg Department of Computer Science Columbia University New York, NY 10027 [email protected] December 1988 Technical Report CUCS-390-88 ABSTRACT This survey presents a wide collection of algorithms for the geometric transformation of digital images. Efficient image transformation algorithms are critically important to the remote sensing, medical imaging, computer vision, and computer graphics communities. We review the growth of this field and compare all the described algorithms. Since this subject is interdisci­ plinary, emphasis is placed on the unification of the terminology, motivation, and contributions of each technique to yield a single coherent framework. This paper attempts to serve a dual role as a survey and a tutorial. It is comprehensive in scope and detailed in style. The primary focus centers on the three components that comprise all geometric transformations: spatial transformations, resampling, and antialiasing. In addition, considerable attention is directed to the dramatic progress made in the development of separable algorithms.

  • Geometric Transformation of Finite Element Methods: Theory and Applications
    GEOMETRIC TRANSFORMATION OF FINITE ELEMENT METHODS: THEORY AND APPLICATIONS MICHAEL HOLST AND MARTIN LICHT Abstract. We present a new technique to apply finite element methods to partial differential equations over curved domains. A change of variables along a coordinate transformation satisfying only low regularity assumptions can translate a Poisson problem over a curved physical domain to a Poisson prob- lem over a polyhedral parametric domain. This greatly simplifies both the geo- metric setting and the practical implementation, at the cost of having globally rough non-trivial coefficients and data in the parametric Poisson problem. Our main result is that a recently developed broken Bramble-Hilbert lemma is key in harnessing regularity in the physical problem to prove higher-order finite el- ement convergence rates for the parametric problem. Numerical experiments are given which confirm the predictions of our theory. 1. Introduction The computational theory of partial differential equations has been in a paradoxi- cal situation from its very inception: partial differential equations over domains with curved boundaries are of theoretical and practical interest, but numerical methods are generally conceived only for polyhedral domains. Overcoming this geomet- ric gap continues to inspire much ongoing research in computational mathematics for treating partial differential equations with geometric features. Computational methods for partial differential equations over curved domains commonly adhere to the philosophy of approximating the physical domain of the partial differential equation by a parametric domain. We mention isoparametric finite element meth- ods [2], surface finite element methods [10, 8, 3], or isogeometric analysis [14] as examples, which describe the parametric domain by a polyhedral mesh whose cells are piecewise distorted to approximate the physical domain closely or exactly.

  • MATH 9 HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT GIVEN on FEBRUARY 3, 2019. CIRCLE INVERSION Circle Inversion Circle Inversion (Or Simply Inversion) I
    MATH 9 HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT GIVEN ON FEBRUARY 3, 2019. CIRCLE INVERSION Circle inversion Circle inversion (or simply inversion) is a geometric transformation of the plane. One can think of the inversion as of reflection with respect to a circle which is analogous to a reflection with respect to a straight line. See wikipedia article on Inversive geometry. Definition of inversion Definition. Given a circle S with the center at point O and having a radius R consider the transformation of the plane taking each point P to a point P 0 such that (i) the image P 0 belongs to a ray OP (ii) the distance jOP 0j satisfies jOP j · jOP 0j = R2. Remark. Strictly speaking the inversion is the transformation not of the whole plane but a plane without point O. The point O does not have an image. It is convenient to think of an “infinitely remote" point O0 added to a euclidian plane so that O and O0 are mapped to each other by the inversion. Basic properties of inversion We formulated and proved some basic properties of the inversion. The most important properties are that the inversion • maps circles and straight lines onto circles and straight lines • preserves angles These properties are stated as homework problems below. Try to prove them indepen- dently. In the following we denote the center of inversion as O, the circle of inversion as S and we use prime to denote the images of various objects under inversion. Classwork Problems The properties presented in problems 1-3 are almost obvious.

  • Article Which He Wrote for the five-Volume Entsik- Lopedia Elementarnoy Matematiki
    A CURIOUS GEOMETRIC TRANSFORMATION NIKOLAI IVANOV BELUHOV Abstract. An expansion is a little-known geometric transformation which maps directed circles to directed circles. We explore the applications of ex- pansion to the solution of various problems in geometry by elementary means. In his book Geometricheskie Preobrazovaniya, Isaac Moiseevich Yaglom de- scribes one curious geometric transformation called expansion 1. A few years after coming across this transformation, the author of the present paper was rather surprised to discover that it leads to quite appealing geometrical solutions of a number of problems otherwise very difficult to treat by elementary means. Most of these originated in Japanese sangaku – wooden votive tablets which Japanese mathematicians of the Edo period painted with the beautiful and extraordinary theorems they discovered and then hung in Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines. Researching the available literature prior to compiling this paper brought an- other surprise: that expansion was not mentioned in almost any other books on geometry. Only two references were uncovered – one more book by I. M. Ya- glom [7] and an encyclopedia article which he wrote for the five-volume Entsik- lopedia Elementarnoy Matematiki. Therefore, we begin our presentation with an informal introduction to expan- sion and the geometry of cycles and rays. 1. Introduction We call an oriented circle a cycle. Whenever a circle k of radius R is oriented positively (i.e., counterclockwise), we label the resulting cycle k+ and say that it is of radius R. Whenever k is oriented negatively (i.e., clockwise), we label the resulting cycle k− and say that it is of radius R.

    Making Mathematical Connections Activity 1 6/3/2002 Activity 1 Isometries of the Plane We will investigate transformations of the plane that preserve distance. These transformations will take the entire plane onto a "copy" of itself. For this activity you will need to draw a scalene triangle on a two transparencies so that you have two "identical" triangles. Here's a definition. Definition: A one-to-one, onto function f from the plane to the plane is called an isometry of the plane if, for any two points P and Q, the segment PQ is congruent to the segment fPfQ()(). 1. Give an explanation of the meaning of congruent as used above. Try to be precise. 2. Using your transparencies, experiment to find ways to move a triangle from one location to another. How many types of isometries of the plane can you identify? Is there one that is a combination of two others? What properties of your triangles are preserved by the isometries? 3. Consider an isometry of the plane as a function from the plane to itself. Craft a careful definition for each type of isometry of the plane. 4. Is there a type of transformation of the plane that is not an isometry but preserves some of the same properties preserved by isometries?

  • Geometric Transformations and Thresholding of Images Using Opencv-Python (GRDJE/ Volume 2 / Issue 11 / 007)
    GRD Journals- Global Research and Development Journal for Engineering | Volume 2 | Issue 11 | October 2017 ISSN: 2455-5703 Geometric Transformations and Thresholding of Images using Opencv-Python R. Devi Assistant Professor Department of Electronic and Communication Engineering Saranathan College of Engineering,Trichy, India Abstract A geometric change is any bijection of a set having some geometric structure to itself or another such set. Specifically, a geometric change is a capacity whose space and range are sets of focuses. In this paper to apply diverse geometric change to pictures like interpretation, turn, relative change utilizing opencv-Python is presented. Geometric changes can be grouped by the measurement of their operand sets (along these lines recognizing planar changes and those of space, for instance). They can likewise be ordered by the properties they save. Displacements preserve distances and oriented angles; Iso-metries preserve angles and distances; Similarities preserve angles and ratios between distances; affine transformations preserve parallelism; projective transformations preserve collinearity. Keywords- Transformations, Scaling, Translations, Affine I. INTRODUCTION In computer graphics and digital imaging, image scaling refers to the resizing of a digital image. In video technology, the magnification of digital material is known as up-scaling or resolution enhancement. When scaling a vector graphic image, the graphic primitives that make up the image can be scaled using geometric transformations, with no loss of image quality. When scaling a raster graphics image, a new image with a higher or lower number of pixels must be generated. In the case of decreasing the pixel number (scaling down) this usually results in a visible quality loss.
