Vanishing point as the "direction point", as lines having the same directional vector, say "D", will have the same vanishing point. Mathematically, let be a point lying on the image plane, where is the focal length (of the camera associated with the image), and let be the unit vector associated with , where . If we consider a straight line in space with the unit vector and its vanishing point , the unit vector associated with is equal to , assuming both are assumed to point towards the image plane. When the image plane is parallel to two world-coordinate axes, lines parallel
Parallel projection central or perspective projection, in which the rays pass through a fixed point called the "center" or "viewpoint", as this point is moved towards infinity. Put differently, a parallel projection corresponds to a perspective projection with an infinite focal length (the distance between the lens and the focal point in photography) or "zoom". In parallel projections, lines that are parallel in three-dimensional space remain parallel in the two-dimensional projected image. A perspective projection of an object is often considered more realistic than a parallel projection, since it more closely resembles human vision and photography. However, parallel projections are popular in
