V

Value : The relative lightness or darkness of a color.
Vanishing Point : A point in a perspective projection where parallel lines not parallel to the projection plane converge. A finite 2D projection of a point at infinity in 3D.
Vector : A list of numbers, typically Cartesian coordinates or a direction in 2D or 3D.
Vector Graphic : The earliest computer graphics displays were drawn on so-called vector displays, because the electron beam which produced the image was under software control. The beam followed a chain of vectors (i.e. a polyline) from one point to another. Vector graphics is sometimes referred to as line-drawing graphics.
