Viewing Pipeline, Viewing Coordinate Reference Frame

The document discusses the viewing pipeline and viewing coordinate reference frame. The viewing pipeline involves 4 steps: 1) Constructing objects in modeling coordinates 2) Converting to world coordinates 3) Applying window to viewport transformation 4) Mapping to device coordinates. The viewing coordinate system provides a reference frame for specifying the world coordinate window and is set up using transformations like translation and rotation between coordinate systems.

Window
• Area selected in world-coordinate for display is called
window.
Viewport
• Area on a display device in which window image is
display (mapped) is called viewport.
Viewing pipeline

• The general processing steps for converting modeling


coordinates to device coordinates is Viewing Pipeline
Viewing pipeline (1)
• Construct the shape of individual objects in a scene
within modeling coordinate, and place the objects into
appropriate positions within the scene (world
coordinate) using modeling coordinate transformation.
Viewing pipeline (2)

• We convert viewing coordinates from world coordinates


using window to viewport transformation.
Viewing pipeline (3)
• We map viewing coordinate to normalized
viewing coordinate in which we obtain values in
between 0 to 1.
Viewing pipeline (4)
• At last we convert normalized viewing coordinate to
device coordinate using device driver software which
provide device specification.

Viewing-Coordinate Reference Frame
• This coordinate system provides the reference frame for
specifying the world- coordinate window. We set up the viewing
coordinate system using transformations between coordinate
system.
