Project 3D graphics onto a plane
ResourceFunction["ProjectGraphics3D"][graphics3D,p] projects an image of graphics3D onto a plane through point p and perpendicular to the line from the center of the graphics3D to p. | |
ResourceFunction["ProjectGraphics3D"][graphics3D,{e1,e2},p] projects an image of graphics3D onto a plane with basis vectors {e1, e2} at p, along the line from the origin to p. | |
ResourceFunction["ProjectGraphics3D"][graphics3D,{e1,e2},p,center] projects along the line from center to p, as seen from Infinity. |
Project a curve onto a plane:
| In[1]:= | ![]() |
| Out[1]= | ![]() |
Project a polyhedron:
| In[2]:= |
| Out[2]= | ![]() |
Project a surface:
| In[3]:= |
| Out[3]= | ![]() |
A curve not defined at some ranges:
| In[4]:= |
| Out[4]= | ![]() |
Show it with a projection:
| In[5]:= |
| Out[5]= | ![]() |
Define a graphic using a callout wrapper and show it along with its projection:
| In[6]:= | ![]() |
| Out[7]= | ![]() |
Show the correspondence between points in the helix and its projection:
| In[8]:= | ![]() |
| Out[9]= | ![]() |
| In[10]:= | ![]() |
| Out[10]= | ![]() |
Project the curve in orthogonal planes:
| In[11]:= | ![]() |
| Out[11]= | ![]() |
The rectifying plane:
| In[12]:= |
| Out[12]= |
The normal plane:
| In[13]:= |
| Out[13]= |
The osculating plane:
| In[14]:= |
| Out[14]= |
Show the projections of the curve in the normal and rectifying planes (the vectors are the tangent, normal and binormal vectors):
| In[15]:= | ![]() |
| Out[15]= | ![]() |
ProjectGraphics3D supports the same options as Graphics3D:
| In[16]:= |
| Out[16]= | ![]() |
| In[17]:= | ![]() |
| Out[17]= | ![]() |
Get the equation for a helix:
| In[18]:= |
| Out[18]= |
Define a graphic output and compute its center:
| In[19]:= |
| Out[20]= |
Show the curve (green), its projection (red), and the plane of projection:
| In[21]:= | ![]() |
| Out[21]= | ![]() |
Hover the mouse over the curve:
| In[22]:= |
| In[23]:= |
| Out[23]= | ![]() |
Move the spanning vectors and the location point:
| In[24]:= | ![]() |
| In[25]:= | ![]() |
| Out[25]= | ![]() |
