This short video provides a fast, visual introduction to how coordinates describe position in two and three dimensions.
A moving object demonstrates how x and y values change on a flat screen, followed by a transition to three-dimensional space where x, y, and z coordinates update together.
Key ideas:
- x and y define position on a flat screen
- z adds depth in 3D space
- Multiple coordinates change at the same time during motion
- Positive directions: right (x), up (y), and toward the viewer (z)
This quick reference is ideal for students who want a concise overview of coordinate systems used in virtual environments.
For a more detailed explanation, see the full-length version.
