Study Notes
Orthographic Projection
- A type of projection that presents a 2D representation of a 3D object, showing the object's dimensions and shape in a single view.
Key Characteristics
- The obverse of an orthographic projection is the reverse view of the object.
Non-Parallel Projection
- If the principal planes or axes of an object in an orthographic projection are not parallel with the projection plane, the depiction is called an oblique projection.
Parallel Projection
- The principal axes or planes of the subject are parallel with the projection plane in orthographic projection when the object is viewed directly from the front, top, or side.
Axonometric Projection
- Also known as parallel projection, it is a type of orthographic projection where the object is rotated to show multiple sides simultaneously.
