CSci 480 Lecture Notes
(Fall) Week Five, Wednesday; (Summer) Week Two, Thursday: Geometrical Transformations (continued)
Handout: Medical imaging article from Scientific American (fair use for educational purposes).
5.7 Matrix Representation of 3D Transformations
As in 2D, we use homogeneous coordinates to represent points in 3-space.
3D transformations are represented as 4 x 4 matrices.
5.8 Composition of 3D Transformations
We compose a transformation from primitive transformations.
5.9 Transformations as a Change in Coordinate System
We can think about transformations as a change in coordinate system.
