View plane - The plane on which images are projected. This plane can be parallel to the display screen or tilted. View volume - The portion of a 3D model displayed at any point in time.

3D computer graphics (in contrast to 2D computer graphics) are graphics that utilize a three-dimensional representation of geometric data that is stored in the computer for the purposes of ...

Hi, I'm Carrie Anne, and welcome to CrashCourse Computer Science! This 1960 PDP-1 is a great example of early computing with graphics. You can see a cabinet-sized computer on the left, an ...

Of course, we don't have X/Y/Z coordinates on a 2D computer screen, so graphics algorithms are responsible for "flattening" 3D coordinates onto a 2D plane. This process is known as 3D Projection.
