Projection
Graphical projection is
a protocol by which an
image of an three-
dimensional object is
projected onto a
planar surface without
the aid of
mathematical
calculation, used in
technical drawing.
The projection is achieved by the use of
imaginary "projectors".
Parallel projection
In parallel projection, the lines
of sight from the object to the
projection plane are parallel to
each other.
Perspective projection
Perspective projection is a
type of projection where
three dimensional objects
are not projected along
parallel lines, but along lines
emerging from a single
point. This has the effect
that distant objects appear
smaller than nearer
objects.
Orthographic projection

The Orthographic projection is a two-
dimensional representation (paper) of a three-
dimensional object. It is the projection type of
choice for working drawings.
