Transformations

What? Just functions acting on points

(x’,y’,z’) = T(x,y,z)

P’ = T(P)

Why?

Viewing￭ Window coordinates to framebuffer coordinates

￭ Virtual camera: parallel/perspective projections

Modeling￭ Create objects in convenient coordinates

￭ Multiple instances of a prototype shape

￭ Kinematics of linkages/skeletons - characters/robots

Parametric Form of a Line

15/50

Linear Transform→ Lines Map to Lines

Start with the parametric form of a line

Transform all the points on the line

Thus, a line transforms into a linear

combination of transformed points,

which is a line

Coordinate System

An origin o and two unit vectors x, y define a frame of reference

17/50

Points are Defined wrt to the Frame

18/50

Coordinate Frames

Can interpret the columns of the matrix

as the x and y axes that define the frame

19/50

Rotation Matrix?

20/50

Rotation Matrix

Setting the columns of the matrix

to the x and y axes

creates the transform from that frame

Rotate 45 about the Center (1,1)?

T(1,1)

32/50

Order of Transformations

The rightmost transform is applied first

P’ = T(1,1) (R(45)(P))

That is, the rotate is applied before the translate

OpenGL

glTranslatef( 1.0, 1.0, 0.0 );

glRotatef( 45.0, 0., 0., 1. );

The last gl call is applied first; we’ll see why later

33/50

Advantages of the Matrices

Combine a sequence of transforms into

a single transform

P’ = A ( B ( C ( D ( p ) ) ) )

= ( A B C D ) P

= M P

Why? Matrix multiplication is associative

Advantages￭ Very inefficient to recompute the matrix entries

￭ Very inefficient to multiply matrix times point multiple times

￭ Compute the matrix M once and then apply that matrix to many points

42/50

Skeletons and Linkages

1. Skeleton represents the hierarchy of an assembly of parts

- The arm is made of an upper arm and a lower arm

- Different parts may have the same shape, i.e. are “geometric instances”

2. Parts connected by joints

- “The ankle joint is connected to the knee joint”

- Different types of joints move differently

e.g. a ball and socket joint, a linear actuator

43/50

How Linkages Work

Lower levels of the hierarchy move when the upper levels moves

￭ e.g. moving the left shoulder moves the left arm and the left hand

Motion in one sub-tree does not effect the position of a part in another sub-tree

￭ e.g. moving the left hand does not effect the right hand

OpenGL

46/50

Current Transformation Matrix

OpenGL maintains a current transformation matrix (CTM).

All geometry is transformed by the CTM.

Transformation commands are concatenated onto the CTM on the right.

CTM *= T

This causes T to be applied before the old CTM

47/50

OpenGL Matrix Functions

glLoadIdentity( )

￭ Set the transform matrix to the identity matrix

glLoadMatrix( matrix M )

￭ Replace the transform matrix with M

glMultMatrix( matrix M )

￭ Multiplies transform matrix by CTM * M

￭ glRotate, glTranslate, glScale etc. are just wrappers for glMultMatrix

48/50

Graphics Coordinate Frames

Object

￭ Raw values as provided by glVertex (ex. teacup centered at origin)

World

￭ Object at final location in environment (ex. teacup recentered to be on top of a table)

Screen

￭ Object at final screen position

49/50

OpenGL Matrix Functions

glMatrixMode( mode )

￭ Sets which transformation matrix to modify

￭ GL_MODELVIEW: object to world transform

￭ GL_PROJECTION: world to screen transform

￭ CTM = GL_PROJECTION * GL_MODELVIEW

Why? May need to transform by one of these matrices for certain calculations like lighting. More on this latter.

50/50

OpenGL Matrix Stack

Save and restore transformations

glPushMatrix ( )

￭ Pushes the current matrix onto the top of the matrix stack

glPopMatrix ( )

￭ Pops the matrix off the top of the matrix stack and loads it as the current matrix
