The simplest type of drawing and one of the quickest ways to share an idea. Sketching
This is a 3-D version of sketching and is less realistic than perspective sketching. Isometric sketching
Paper that has a grid of vertical lines. Isometric paper
This provides the most realistic picture of objects. Perspective sketching
This kind of drawing shows each surface of the object "square on," that is, at right angles to the surface. Orthographic projection
The view that shows the front of an object. Front view
The view that shows the top of an object. Top view
The view that shows the right side of an object. Right-side view
Three tools used to sketch orthographic views easily. Drafting triangles, compass, ruler
A thin, faint line used to start a drawing. Construction line
A dark, thick line used to show the outline of an object. Object (visible) line
A line of short and evenly-spaced dashes used to show hidden features. Hidden line
A line of alternating long and short dashes used to show the centers of holes. Centerline
A thin line used to show the size of an object and its parts. Extension + dimension line
The lines that show the outline of an object. Object lines
A drawing that is larger or smaller than the object by a fixed ratio. Scale drawing
A scale that is larger than the object by a fixed ratio. Enlarged scale
A new form of drawing that stands for Computer-Aided Design. CAD
Three devices or parts a typical CAD system has. Input device, processor, output device
Two common input devices on a CAD system. Keyboard + digitizer
A virtual reality projection screen that is used in the most advanced CAD systems. Power wall
An artificial environment provided by a computer that creates sights, sounds, and, occasionally, feelings through the use of a mask, speakers, and gloves or other sensory-enhancing devices. Virtual reality
