(Euclidean geometry is a subset of projective geometry, and there are two geometries between them: similarity and affine.) Also at http://vision.stanford.edu/~birch/projective/. more>> Projective Geometry - Nick Thomas Basics, path curves, counter space, pivot transforms, and some people involved in the development of projective geometry, which is concerned with incidences: where elements such as lines planes and points either coincide or not. For example, Desargues Theorem says that if corresponding sides of two triangles meet in three points lying on a straight line, then corresponding vertices lie on three concurrent lines. The converse is also true: if corresponding vertices lie on concurrent lines, then corresponding sides meet in collinear points. This illustrates a fact about incidences and has nothing to say about measurements, which is characteristic of pure projective geometry. Projective geometry regards parallel lines as meeting in an ideal point at infinity. more>> PyGeo - Arthur Siegel A dynamic geometry toolset written in Python, with dependencies on Python's Numeric and VPython extensions. It defines a set of geometric primitives in 3d space and allows for the construction of geometric models that can be manipulated interactively, while defined geometric relationships remain invariant. It is particularly suitable for the visualization of concepts of Projective Geometry. PyGeo comes with complete source code. | |
