A machine may render a view that includes a portion of an infinite plane within a three-dimensional (3D) space. The machine may determine a polygon within a frustum in the 3D space. The polygon may be determined by calculating an intersection of the frustum with the infinite plane. The polygon may represent that portion of the infinite plane which lies within the boundaries of the frustum. The machine may then determine a color of an element of this polygon according to one or more algorithms, default values, or other programming for depicting the infinite plane within the 3D space. The color of this element of the polygon may be that applied by the machine to a further element that is located on the far plane of the frustum, and this further element may be located at a height above the polygon within the 3D space.

Rendering an infinite plane

Methods and apparatus for three-dimensional (3D) camera positioning using a two-dimensional (2D) vanishing point grid. A vanishing point grid in a scene and initial camera parameters may be obtained. A new 3D camera may be calculated according to the vanishing point grid that places the grid as a ground plane in a scene. A 3D object may then be placed on the ground plane in the scene as defined by the 3D camera. The 3D object may be placed at the center of the vanishing point grid. Once placed, the 3D object can be moved to other locations on the ground plane or otherwise manipulated. The 3D object may be added as a layer in the image.

A method, system, and computer-readable storage medium are disclosed for distortion-based mask generation. A respective distortion metric may be determined at each location of a plurality of locations in a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional object. The two-dimensional representation may be based on a view of the three-dimensional object. Each respective distortion metric may indicate a degree of distortion in a mapping between the respective location in the two-dimensional representation and a corresponding location in a surface texture of the three-dimensional object. The visual representation of the respective distortion metric at one or more of the plurality of locations may be displayed.

Methods and apparatuses are provided which may be implemented to provide a multiple-function user interactive tool adapted for manipulating three-dimensional objects graphically presented within a virtual space.
