Geometric Transformations Concentration on 3D graphics Affine & Euclidean vector spaces Homogeneous coordinates Formalities of vector spaces & matrix algebra – see App.B&C Goals: method for dealing with geometric objects – independent of a coordinate system coordinate free approach & homogeneous coordinates
Scalars, Points & Vectors Most geometric objects can be defined by a limited set of primitives, like scalars, points, vectors Different perspectives: mathematical programming geometric BUT ALL are important for understanding vector = directed (oriented) line segment vectors have no fixed position!
Geometric View vectors have no fixed position had-to-tail rule – useful to express functionality C = A + B points & vectors – distinct geometric types! a given vector can be defined as from a fixed reference point (origin) to the given point p (dangerous vector repr.)
Vector & Affine Spaces Vector (linear) space vector & scalars – addition &multiplication operations used to form a scalar field (scalars – real, complex numbers, rational functions – typical Ax=0, n-tuples etc.) Affine space – extension of vector space – the point is an object vector-point addition, point-point subtraction, geometric operations with points etc. Euclidean space – enables to measure distance, size
Representation Mathematicians – scalars, points, vectors etc. – they are distinguished by symbols and fonts (bold, capital, italic etc.) Computer scientists – Abstract Data Types – ADT – set of operations on data; operations independent from the actual physical realization/implementation Data abstraction – fundamental to Computer Science but causes difficulties in a code understanding What is the meaning of a sequence in C++ : q = p + a * v;
Representation What is the meaning of a sequence in C++ : q = p + a * v; can be determined if the definition is known: vector u, v; point p, q; scalar a, b; and their actual meaning must be vector type as a vector ! OpenGL is not object oriented so far
Geometric ADT & Lines Symbols: , , - scalars P, Q, R – points u, v, w – vectors Typical geometrical operations: | v| = | | | v | v = P – Q => P = v + Q ( P – Q )+ ( Q – R ) = P – R P() = P0 + d (a line in an affine space – param.form)
Affine Sums new point P can be defined as P = Q + v Point R v = R – Q and P = Q + (R –Q)= R + (1- )Q P = 1 R+ 2 Q where 1 + 2 = 1
Convexity A convex object is one for which any point lying on the line segment connecting any two points in the object is also in the object P = 1 R+ 2 Q & 1+ 2 = 1 More general form P = 1P1+2P2 +... +nPn where 1+2 +... +n= 1 & i 0 , i = 1, 2, ....,n
Planes Let P, Q, R are points defining a plane in an affine space S() = P + (1- )Q , 0 1 T() = S + (1 - ) R , 0 1 using a substitution T(,) = [ P + (1- )Q ] + ( 1 - ) R , 0 1 & 0 1 T(,) = P + (1 - )( Q – P ) + (1 - ) (R – P) Plane given by a point P0 and vectors u, v T(,) = P0 + u + v & 0 , 1
Planes A triangle is defined as (a plane has no limits for , ) T(,) = P0 + u + v & 0 , 1 If a point P lies in the plane then P - P0 = u + v Let w = u x v (cross product) The vector w is orthogonal to the plane and the equation wT (P – P0) = 0 (criterion for a test: point in the plane) vector w is called a normal vector and symbol n is often used
Three Dimensional Primitives Full range of graphics primitives cannot be supported by graphics systems – some are approximated most graphics systems optimized for procession points and polygons, polygons in E3 are not planar – tessellation is required or made by the system itself Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) – objects build using set operations like union, intersection, difference etc.
Coordinate Systems and Frames A vector w is defined as w = 1v1 + 2v2 + 3v3 1, 2, 3 are components of w with respect to the basis vectors v1 ,v2 ,v3 vectors v forms coordinate system in vector space points representation needs to “fix” the origin – reference point and basis vectors are required - frame
Coordinate Systems and Frames Within a given frame every vector can be written uniquely as w = 1v1 + 2v2 + 3v3 just as in a vector space. v1 = [ 1, 0 , 0]T v2 = [ 0, 1 , 0]T v3 = [ 0, 0 , 1]T Every point can be written uniquely as w = P0 + 1v1 + 2v2 + 3v3
Changes of Coordinate Systems Suppose that {v1 , v2 , v3 } & {u1 , u2 , u3 } are two basis vectors. Therefore 9 scalar components exist { ij} such as u = M v a vector w with respect to v = [v1 , v2 , v3 ]T a = [1 , 2 , 3 ]T w = aT v a vector w with respect to v = [u1 , u2 , u3 ]T b = [ß1 , ß2 , ß3 ]T w = bT u w = bT u = bT M v = aT v bT M = aT a = MT b
Changes of Coordinate Systems The origin unchanged - rotation, scaling representation u = M v Simple translation or a change of a frame cannot be represented in this way Study change of representation – chapter 4.3.2 on your own
Homogeneous coordinates A point P located at (x,y,z) is represented using a 3D frame by P0, v1, v2, v3 as p = [ x , y , z ]T therefore P = P0 + x v1+ y v2 + z v3 and point P can be determined as P = 1v1 + 2v2 + 3v3 + P0 P = [1 , 2 , 3 , 1] [v1 , v2 , v3 , P0 ]T Every point can be written uniquely as w = P0 + 1v1 + 2v2 + 3v3
Homogeneous Coordinates Suppose that {v1 , v2 , v3 , P0 }&{u1 , u2 , u3 , Q0 } are two basis vectors. Therefore 16 scalar components exist { ij} such as u = M v a vector w with respect to v = [v1 , v2 , v3 , P0 ]T = [1 , 2 , 3 , 1]T w = aT v a vector w with respect to v = [u1 , u2 , u3 , Q0]T = [ß1 , ß2 , ß3 , 1]T w = bT u w = bT u = bT M v = aT v bT M = aT a = MT b Study Change in Frames and Frames&ADT Chapters 4.3.4.-5. on your own
Frames in OpenGL Two frames – camera & world frames Consider the camera frame fixed model-view matrix converts the homogeneous coordinate representations of points and vectors to their representations in the camera frame the model-view matrix is part of the state of the system – there is always a camera frame and a present-world frame (how to define new frames – next chapters) three basis vectors correspond to up, y, z -directions,
Frames in OpenGL Default settings: Camera & World frames the same Objects must moved away from camera or Camera must be moved away from objects If camera frame fixed & model-view positioning world frame to camera frame then model-view matrix A is defined as ( d- distance):
Frames in OpenGL Moves points (x,y,z) in the world frame to (x,y,z,-d) in the camera frame This concept is better than the repositioning objects position by changing their vertices Setting the Model-View matrix by sending an array of 16 elements to glLoadMatrix User working in the world coordinates positions the objects as before
Modeling a Colored Cube Problem: Draw a rotating cube. Tasks to be done: modeling converting to the camera frame clipping projection hidden surfaces removal rasterization display of the object
Modeling of a Cube Cube as 6 polygons – facets typedef GLfloat point3[3]; point3 vertices[8] = { {x,y,z},...{x,y,z}}; /* definition of the cube vertices */ ...... glBegin(GL_POLYGON); glVertex3fv(vertices[0]); glVertex3fv(vertices[3]); glVertex3fv(vertices[2]); glVertex3fv(vertices[1]); glEnd ( ); /* facet drawn */ outward facing - normal has right hand rule orientation
Data Structures for Object Represenation Advantages of the data structure: separation of topology and geometry geometry stored in the vertex list hg
Data Structures for Object Represenation typedef GLfloat point3[3]; point3 vertices [8] = {{x,y,z}, ... ,{x,y,z}}; /* vertices x,y,z coordinates def. */ GLfloat Colors[8][3] = {{r,g,b}, .... , {r,g,b}}; /* color defs. */ void quad(int a, int b, int c, int d) { glBegin(GL_QUADS); glColor3fv(colors[a]);glVertex3fv(vertices[a]); glColor3fv(colors[b]);glVertex3fv(vertices[b]); glColor3fv(colors[c]);glVertex3fv(vertices[c]); glColor3fv(colors[d]);glVertex3fv(vertices[d]); glEnd ( ); }
Data Structures for Object Representation color is specified - graphics system must decide how to fill bilinear interpolation C01() = (1- )C0+ C1 C23() = (1- )C2+ C3 for the given value C01() = C4 , C23() = C5 C45() = (1- )C0+ C5 scan-line interpolation OpenGL provides this for others values that are assigned on the vertex-to-vertex basis void colorcube( );/*draws a cube*/ { quad(0,3,2,1); quad(2,3,7,6); quad(0,4,7,3); quad(1,2,6,5); quad(4,5,6,7); quad(0,1,5,4); }
Vertex Arrays glBegin, glEnd, glColor, glVertex – high overhead Vertex arrays – a glEnableClientState(GL_COLOR_ARRAY); glEnableClientState(GL_VERTEX_ARRAY); Arrays are the same as before GLfloat vertices [ ] = {.........}; GLfloat colors [ ] = {.........}; /* specification where the arrays are */ glVertexPointer(3,GL_FLOAT,0,vertices); glColorPointer(3,GL_FLOAT,0,colors); /* 3D vector, type, continuous (packed), pointer to the array */
Vertex Arrays The facets must be specified GLubyte cubeIndices [24] = {0,3,2,1,2,3,7,6,0,4,7,3,1,2,6,5,4,5,6,7,0,1,5,4}; /* facets are formed by 4 vertices */ Options how to draw: glDrawElements(type,n,format,pointer); -------------- SOLUTION ------------ for ( i=0; i<6; i++) /* n number of elements */ glDrawElements(GL_POLYGON,4, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, &cubeIndicis[4*i]); or with a single call glDrawElements(GL_QUADS,24, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, &cubeIndices);
Rotation, translation and Scaling Translation P’ = P + d Rotation x = cos y = sin x’ = cos (+) y’ = sin (+)
Rotation about a fixed point For rotation – implicit point origin 2D – simple 3D –complicated Transformation rigid-body non-rigid-body reflections
