Vanishing point

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

For other uses, see Vanishing point (disambiguation).

A vanishing point is a point in a perspective drawing to which parallel lines appear to converge. The number and placement of the vanishing points determines which perspective technique is being used.

linear perspective is drawing with 1-3 vanishing points.

curvilinear perspective is drawing with 5 vanishing points mapped into a circle with 4 VPs at the cardinal headings N,W,S,E and one at the circle origin.

reverse perspective is drawing with vanishing points that are placed outside the painting with the illusion that they are "in front of" the painting.

Vanishing points were first used by Renaissance artists such as Donatello and Masaccio.

Vanishing points can also refer to the point in the distance where the two verges of a road appear to converge. This is often used to help assess the upcoming curves in the road; to judge the radius and therefore the entry speed and optimum line. If the vanishing point moves towards you or to your sides, the curve is tightening. If the vanishing point moves away from you or comes to centre, the curve is straightening.

hi. This is my first post obviously, and first game like this I've played. Everyone on here is really good at this stuff, I can't believe how fast the puzzles were answered. Anyhow, I've been thinking about a couple things that probably don't mean anything.

1) The total score possible for the game (without referrals) is 1300. Thats a really clean number total and for some reason I have a feeling thats going to mean something.

2) The "other" bug for some of the puzzles (that more than a few people got) stands out to me. Its weird how it shows up behind the popup on the main page and then is gone if you log off / log on.

ok well I won't waste your time anymore. If these things are nothing please don't kill me, it is my first time with this stuff!!

At the end of the video, after the vanishingpointgame.com website address appears, there are some words that flash on the screen. Could this be a clue?

It's the start of the Meta Puzzle. Use that the same way we did the earlier ones.

As for Aaron's e-mail, it was a mistake. We weren't supposed to get that. Those are just his title, work, and fax numbers. Ignore that stuff.

Although, there's one thing I need to take back. Originally, I said to ignore the weird white boxes that were showing up in the game. Apparently, I'm not as smart as I think I am. http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17829

i belive it says /on the run

The "/on the run" bit is where we are all at now.. this clue takes you to another webpage on the site where loki says to contact her hence everybody trying to think of an email address to contact her at, or some other clue based on the email she sends back when an email is sent to [email protected]

But it seems contacting isn't working very well..lol..I get bounce backs when I try to send to any of the addresses.

EDIT

I finally got something back from '[email protected]'

Hmmm. Not quite what I had in mind. Try harder - then listen closely.

...and now I've got the one from Aaron.

    • HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival

      By Steven P. · Posted

      HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival by Steven Parker Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR announced on June 13 that its revolutionary HONOR Robot Phone made its professional imaging debut at the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF), demonstrating the result of its mobile videography capabilities for the first time. As the official mobile photography and videography partner of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival, HONOR empowers this premier cinematic event with cutting-edge mobile imaging technology. Marking the global debut of the first cinematic video it captured, Robot Phone breaks down the boundaries between mobile imaging and professional filmmaking, ushering in a new paradigm for the deep integration of technology and cinematic art. In the video published on HONOR’s official channel (above), Robot Phone was used byELLEMEN to capture cinematic video portraits for the SIFF jury members. With its exceptional stability and cinema-grade imaging capabilities, the device redefines the art of portrait filmmaking, faithfully reproducing the rich tonal gradations and nuanced color transitions associated with film photography. The result is a new level of visual sophistication, creating high-end cinematic imagery that seamlessly blends atmosphere with narrative tension. The video released for the Robot Phone showcases the powerful stabilization capabilities of its built-in gimbal system, delivering exceptionally smooth handheld camera movement while preserving full image quality. By minimizing reliance on electronic image stabilization, the device effectively avoids the image cropping and quality loss typically associated with digital stabilization methods. Representing an innovative leap in form factor, the HONOR Robot Phone features the industry's smallest titanium alloy gimbal, delivering ultra-precision, extreme flexibility, and superior stability. Driven by high-performance motors, the gimbal rises dynamically, breaking free from the physical limitations of traditional camera modules. Combined with advanced AI algorithms that enable intelligent object tracking and various movements with stable shots, the device significantly simplifies video creation and reshapes both the equipment choices and creative habits of modern users. Notably, the Robot Phone will be the first product that features the results of HONOR's strategic technological partnership with ARRI, the world-renowned designer and manufacturer of professional camera technology for cinematic storytelling. From Cannes to Shanghai, the HONOR Robot Phone continues to lead the mobile imaging industry into an entirely new stage of development. Moving forward, HONOR will leverage cutting-edge AI and mobile imaging technologies to unlock new creative possibilities and extend cinematic standards for visual expression from the world of high-end filmmaking to the next generation of content creators.

      I'll wait for the root cause analysis. Looks like it's HP, Lenova, and certain configurations that are askew, hardly "all of windows." Time will tell.

      I had issues with my NVME, it was running really slow (like 2/3 mb bandwidth) ... had to reverted via System Restore and all is fine now.
