Geometric Transformations

2. 5.1 Basic Two-Dimensional
Geometric Transformations
 Operations that are applied to the geometric
description of an object to change its
position, orientation, or size are called
geometric transformations.
 Geometric transformations 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.

3.  geometric transformations
 Translation
 Rotation
 Scaling

5. Two-Dimensional Translation
 We perform a translation on a single coordinate
point by adding offsets to its coordinates so as to
generate a new coordinate position.
 To translate a two-dimensional position, we add
translation distances, tx and ty to the original
coordinates (x,y) to obtain the new coordinate
position (x’,y’),
x = x+t

7. Two-Dimensional Rotation
 We generate a rotation transformation of an
object by specifying a rotation axis and a
rotation angle.
 A two-dimensional rotation of an object is
obtained by repositioning the object along a
circular path in the xy plane.
 Parameters for the two-dimensional rotation
are
 The rotation angle θ
 A position (x,y) – rotation point (pivot
point)

8. The two-dimensional rotation
x ' = r cos(φ + θ ) = r cos φ cos θ − r sin φ sin θ
y ' = r sin(φ + θ ) = r cos φ sin θ + r sin φ cos θ

12. Two-Dimensional Scaling
 To alter the size of an
object, we apply a
scaling transformation.
 A simple two- x = x ⋅ sx

by multiplying object
y = y ⋅ sy
'
positions (x,y) by
scaling factors sx and
sy to produce the  x '  sx 0   x 

coordinates (x’,y’).  y  0 s y   y 
 
P = S•P
'

13.  Any positive values can be assigned to the
scaling factors.
 Values less than 1 reduce the size of
object;
 Values greater than 1 produce
enlargements.
 Uniform scaling – scaling values have the
same value
 Differential scaling – unequal of the
scaling factor

14. Scaling relative to a chosen fixed point

15. 5.2 Matrix Representations and
Homogeneous Coordinates
 Many graphics applications involve
sequences of geometric transformations.
 Hence we consider how the matrix
representations can be reformulated so that
such transformation sequence can be
efficiently processed.
 Each of three basic two-dimensional
transformations (translation, rotation and
scaling) can be expressed in the general
matrix form

16. P and P ’ = column vectors,

M1 = 2 by 2 array containing P = M1 ⋅ P + M 2
'
multiplicative factors, for
translation M1 is the identity
matrix
M2 = two-element column matrix
containing translational terms, for
rotation or scaling M2 contains
the translational terms associated
with the pivot point or scaling
fixed point

  y  y f 
 

18.  To produce a sequence of transformations
such as scaling followed by rotation then
translation, we could calculate the
transformed coordinates one step at a time.
 A more efficient approach is to combine the
transformations so that the final coordinate
positions are obtained directly from the
initial coordinates, without calculating
intermediate coordinate values.

19. Homogeneous Coordinates
 Multiplicative and translational terms for a
two-dimensional geometric transformations
can be combined into a single matrix if we
expand the representations to 3 by 3
matrices.
 Then we can use the third column of a
transformation matrix for the translation
terms, and all transformation equations can
be expressed as matrix multiplications.

20.  But to do so, we also need to expand the
matrix representation for a two-dimensional
coordinate position to a three-element column
matrix.
 A standard technique for accomplishing this
is to expand each two-dimensional
coordinate-position representation (x,y) to a
three-element representation (xh,yh,h), called
homogeneous coordinates, where the
homogeneous parameter h is a nonzero
value such that
xh yh
x= , y=
h h

21.  A convenient choice is simply to set h=1.
 Each two-dimensional position is then
represented with homogeneous coordinate
(x,y,1).
 The term “homogeneous coordinates” is
used in mathematics to refer to the effect of
this representation on Cartesian equations.

25. 5.4 Two-Dimensional Composite
Transformations
 Using matrix representations, we
can set up a sequence of
transformations as a composite
transformation matrix by
calculating the product of the
individual transformations.
 Thus, if we ant to apply two
transformations to point position
P, the transformed location would
be calculated as
P = M 2 ⋅ M1 ⋅ P
'
P = M ⋅P

an object about a sepcified pivot point
using the rotation matrix R(θ).

position is moved to the coordinate origin.

origin.
 Translate the object so that the pivot point
is returned to its original position.

fixed position (xf,yf).

coincides with the coordinate origin.

origin.

37. General Two-dimensional Scaling
Directions
 We can scale an object in
other directions by rotating
the object to align the
y
desired scaling directions s2
with the coordinate axes
before applying the scaling
transformation.
 Suppose we want to apply
scaling factors with values
specified by parameters s1 x
and s2 in the directions s1
shown in fig.

- rotation so that the directions for s1 and s2

40. Matrix Concatenation Properties
 Transformation products may not be
commutative.
 The matrix product M2M1 is not equal to M1M2.
 This means that if we want to translate and
rotate an object, we must be careful about the
order in which the composite matrix is
evaluated.
 Reversing the order in which a sequence of
transformations is performed may affect the
transformed position of an object.

51. Shear
 A transformation that distorts the
shape of an object such that the
transformed shape appears as if the
object were composed of internal
layers that had been caused to slide

59. 5.6 Raster Methods for Geometric
Transformations
 Functions that manipulate rectangular pixel
arrays are called raster operations and
moving a block of pixel values from one
position to another is termed a block
transfer, a bitblt or a pixblt.
 All bit settings in the rectangular area are
copied as a block into another part of the
frame buffer.
 We can erase the pattern at the original
location by assigning the background color
to all pixels within that block.

62. 5.7 OpenGL Raster Transformations
 A translation of a rectangular array of pixel-
color values from one buffer area to another
can be accomplished in OpenGL as a copy
operation:
glCopyPixels(xmin, ymin, width, height, GL_COLOR);
 This array of pixels is to be copied to a
rectangular area of a refresh buffer whose
lower-left corner is at the location specified
by the current raster position.

63.  We can rotate a block of pixel-color values in 90-degree
increments by
 first saving the block in an array,
glReadPixels(xmin, ymin, width, height, GL_RGB,
GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, colorArray);
 then rearranging the elements of the array and
 placing it back in the refresh buffer.
glDrawPixels(width, height, GL_RGB, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE,
colorArray);
 We set the scaling facters with
glPixelZoom(sx,sy);

A Cartesian x’y’ system specified with coordinate origin

frame.

65.  To transform object descriptions from xy
coordinates to x’y’ coordinates, we set up a
transformation that superimposes the axes
onto the x’y’ axes.
 This is done in two steps:
 Translate so that the origin (xn,yn) of the x’y’
system is moved to the origin (0,0) of the xy
system.
 Rotation the x’ axis onto the x axis.
