Vanishing point line that lies in the plane , which is defined by the equation . Using perspective pinhole projections, a point on projected on the image plane will have coordinates defined as, This is the parametric representation of the image of the line with as the parameter. When it stops at the point on the axis of the image plane. This is the vanishing point corresponding to all parallel lines with slope in the plane . All vanishing points associated with different lines with different slopes belonging to plane will lie on the axis, which in this case is the horizon
Ideal point Ideal point In hyperbolic geometry, an ideal point, omega point or point at infinity is a well defined point outside the hyperbolic plane or space. Given a line "l" and a point "P" not on "l", right- and left-limiting parallels to "l" through "P" converge to "l" at "ideal points". Unlike the projective case, ideal points form a boundary, not a submanifold. So, these lines do not "intersect" at an ideal point and such points, although well defined, do not belong to the hyperbolic space itself. The ideal points together form the Cayley absolute or boundary of a hyperbolic geometry.
