3. 3 coordinates of point P : position vector of point P O: origin; : basis vectors

4. 4 ◎ Homogeneous Coordinates Advantages: (a) Some nonlinear systems can be transformed into linear ones (b) Equations written in terms of homogeneous coordinates become more compact. (c) A transformation, comprising rotation, translation, scaling, and perspective projection, can be written in a single matrix

5. 5 ○ Point: ○ Plane equation: or where

6. 6 ○ Sphere equation: where

7. 7 ○ Quadric surface equation: where

8. 8 2.1.2 Coordinate System Changes and Rigid Transformations Two subjects: (a) Coordinate system changes (b) Rigid transformations Consider two coordinate systems, A and B

9. 9 ○ Coordinate System Changes Position vectors: Coordinate transformation:(?)

10. 10 。 Translation vector : the vector translates the origin of coordinate system A to that of system B ○ Rigid Transformations

11. 11 。 Rotation matrix : the 3 by 3 matrix rotates coordinate system A to coincide with system B

12. 12 The 1 st column of is formed by projecting onto The columns of form frame A described in terms of frame B is formed by projecting onto The rows of form frame B described in terms of frame A The 1 st row of

13. 13 ＊ Properties: (a) (b) : unitary matrix (c) (d) orthonormal matrices ○ Rigid Transformation: A rigid transformation preserves: (1) the distance between two points (2) the angle between two vectors

14. 14 be their corresponding points in frame B, i.e., Proof: Let be two points in frame A Then, (1) Distance preservation

15. 15 (2) Angle preservation (Assignment)
