Right handed vs Left Handed Coordinate Systems RHCS and LHSC

   * 3D Basics
   * LHCS and RHCS - part 1
   * Cartesian coordinates

Matrices: A matrix is a class that is used to transform vectors. High Level Shader Language

HLSL pathway to Hardware.


World

Matrix that holds all Vertices send to video card View

frustum of the camera view ProjectionFlat 2D plane that intererates the 3D View

     The video card is handed a list of vertices the vetices are then places in the world. The View is used to see the world and the projection is the actual view surface.
   * Vertex Buffer
     Vertex buffer is a list of vertices that are used to make one of the XNA privative shapes.
   * VertexDeclaration

Homework

Create a simple 3D Vertex buffer that draws some kind of simple object. You can use points, Triangles, or lines, but no meshes.
