Abstract

The great advances in the field of computer graphic design, have led to the development of more powerful applications, which have become an essential tool for the designer and have revolutionized the teaching of Descriptive Geometry. However, design software is not perfect, as there are some limitations that have to be overcome. This chapter focuses on solving the problem of obtaining oblique perspectives from a 3D model, as it is a common trouble in most of CAD software, since they only provide orthogonal projections and perspectives from a 3D model. This obstacle has led to the fact that the use of oblique projections, such as military and cavalier perspectives, has been drastically reduced.
