Optical axis

What is the relationship between the origin O and the pinhole?

The origin O coincides with the pinhole

What is the purpose of the coordinate system (O, i, j, k) in the context of the pinhole projection?

To describe the pinhole camera

What is the main disadvantage of the pinhole principle in camera systems?

Not enough light is gathered from the scene.

What is the assumption made in the weak perspective projection model?

Scene points have approximately identical distances.

What is the purpose of using a lens in camera systems?

To gather more light from the scene and keep the image in focus.

What is the relationship between the coordinates of scene and image points in the perspective projection model?

x0 = f0x/z

α1 = γ + β1

What is the derived relationship between scene and image points?

x/x0 = y/y0 = f/z0

They are not refracted
