    Study Notes

    2D Transformations Overview

    • Transformations modify objects using mathematical rules, functioning as mappings between original and new values.
    • Essential for graphics in facilitating movement, camera views, and mapping across different spaces (model, world, camera, screen).
    • Supports defining hierarchical relationships between objects.

    Basic 2D Transformations

    • Translation: Moves every point by an offset vector (tx, ty); formulas:
      • x' = x + tx
      • y' = y + ty
    • Scaling: Alters object size about a point; uniform (sx = sy) or non-uniform (sx ≠ sy).
      • Formulas are:
      • x' = x * sx
      • y' = y * sy
    • Rotation: Rotates points around an origin or pivot; formulas for rotation about the origin are:
      • x' = x * cos(q) - y * sin(q)
      • y' = x * sin(q) + y * cos(q)

    Advanced Transformations

    • Scaling About a Fixed Point:
      • Translate the fixed point to the origin, apply scaling, then translate back:
      • x' = (x - xf) * sx + xf
      • y' = (y - yf) * sy + yf
    • Reflection: Flips objects across an axis; formulas for key reflections include:
      • Reflection about y-axis: x' = -x
      • Reflection about x-axis: y' = -y
      • Reflection about the origin: x' = -x, y' = -y

    Matrix Representation of Transformations

    • Transformations can be represented using matrices for easier computation.
      • Translation Matrix:
        | x' | | 1 0 tx | | x |
        | y' | = | 0 1 ty | * | y |
        | 1 | | 0 0 1 | | 1 |
    • Rotation Matrix:
      | x' | | cos(q) -sin(q) 0 | | x |
      | y' | = | sin(q) cos(q) 0 | * | y |
      | 1 | | 0 0 1 | | 1 |
    • Scaling Matrix:
      | x' | | sx 0 0 | | x |
      | y' | = | 0 sy 0 | * | y |
      | 1 | | 0 0 1 | | 1 |

    Homogeneous Coordinates

    • Introduces a third coordinate (w) for uniform representation of 2D transformations in a 3D context.
    • Expresses 2D points in homogeneous form: (x, y) = (xh, yh, h), where h ≠ 0.
    • Allows a unified approach to managing affine transformations and composite transformation combinations.

    Composite Transformations

    • Multiple transformations can be chained together; the order affects the final result.
    • For example, performing a translation, then scaling, followed by a rotation is different from the reverse order.
    • Notation for transforming with multiple matrices is:
      • P' = R[Q[T]]P, where Q and T denote previous transformations.

    Important Notations

    • OpenGL transformation sequence uses reverse order for applying multiple transformations:
      • glTranslatef(xp, yp, 0);
      • glRotatef(theta, 0, 0, 1.0);
      • glTranslatef(-xp, -yp, 0);

    Summary

    • Understanding these transformations and their representations is critical for accurate object manipulation in graphics programming, ensuring smooth and intentional visual effects.
