Geometric area of projection of a multidimensional object in a viewport space

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions which when executed by a processing system having at least one processing core performs a method, comprising:

• determining a set of visible faces projected by a camera on a viewport space displayed on a graphical user interface, wherein a multidimensional object is presented in an electronically generated multidimensional environment;
• projecting vertices of each face in the set of visible faces that are visible on the viewport space;
• determining a set of polygons of each face based on the projected vertices of each face;
• calculating an area of each polygon in the set of polygons;
• and
• performing a summation of the area of each polygon in the set of polygons;
• wherein the processing system determines a geometrical area of projection of the multidimensional object.

A system, comprising:

• a memory device;
• a processing system coupled to the memory device, the processing system configured to:
• determine a set of visible faces projected by a camera on a viewport space displayed on a graphical user interface, wherein a multidimensional object is presented in an electronically generated multidimensional environment;
• project vertices of each face in the set of visible faces that are visible on the viewport space;
• determine a set of polygons of each face based on the projected vertices of each face;
• calculate an area of each polygon in the set of polygons;
• and
• perform a summation of the area of each polygon in the set of polygons;
• wherein the processing system determines a geometrical area of projection of the multidimensional object.
