Question

In the context of 3D Computer graphics, which of the following statements is/are correct?

(A) Under perspective projection, each set of parallel lines in the object do not stay parallel in the image (except those that are parallel to the viewplane to start with).

(B) Applying a perspective transformation in the graphics pipeline to a vertex involves dividing by its 'z' coordinate.

(C) Perspective transformation is a linear transformation.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The correct answer is

(A) and (B) only

In a camera coordinate system with the viewing direction along the z-axis, perspective projection maps \((x,y,z)\) to coordinates proportional to \((x/z,y/z)\). Thus B holds in this standard convention. Parallel lines not parallel to the viewplane generally converge, giving A. The division makes the Cartesian mapping nonlinear, so C is false; a homogeneous matrix representation does not remove the perspective divide.
