Lecture

Shadows and Projections: Geometric Descriptive

Description

This lecture covers the concepts of shadow projection, including the shadow cast by an object on a plane, the shadow of a segment, and the shadow of a triangular plate. It also explains how to determine if a face is illuminated or shaded by comparing the orientation of the object triangle with the shadow triangle.
