Projections and antiprojections of one geometric object onto another can be accomplished using the connect and meet operations as described below.

The formulas on this page are general and do not require the geometric objects to be unitized. Most of them become simpler if unitization can be assumed.

Projection

The orthogonal projection of an object $$\mathbf a$$ onto an object $$\mathbf b$$ is given by the general formula

$$\mathbf b \vee (\mathbf a \wedge \mathbf b^\unicode["segoe ui symbol"]{x2606})$$ ,

where the operation in parentheses is the weight expansion of $$\mathbf a$$ into $$\mathbf b$$.

Projections involving points, lines, and planes in the 4D rigid geometric algebra $$\mathcal G_{3,0,1}$$ are shown in the following table.

$$\mathbf g \vee (\mathbf p \wedge \mathbf g^\unicode["segoe ui symbol"]{x2606}) = (g_x^2 + g_y^2 + g_z^2)\mathbf p - (g_xp_x + g_yp_y + g_zp_z + g_wp_w)(g_x \mathbf e_1 + g_y \mathbf e_2 + g_z \mathbf e_3)$$

Projection of point $$\mathbf p$$ onto line $$\boldsymbol l$$.

$$\begin{split}\boldsymbol l \vee (\mathbf p \wedge \boldsymbol l^\unicode["segoe ui symbol"]{x2606}) =\, &(l_{vx} p_x + l_{vy} p_y + l_{vz} p_z)(l_{vx} \mathbf e_1 + l_{vy} \mathbf e_2 + l_{vz} \mathbf e_3) \\ +\, &(l_{vy} l_{mz} - l_{vz} l_{my})p_w \mathbf e_1 \\ +\, &(l_{vz} l_{mx} - l_{vx} l_{mz})p_w \mathbf e_2 \\ +\, &(l_{vx} l_{my} - l_{vy} l_{mx})p_w \mathbf e_3 \\ +\, &(l_{vx}^2 + l_{vy}^2 + l_{vz}^2)p_w \mathbf e_4\end{split}$$

Antiprojection

The orthogonal antiprojection of an object $$\mathbf a$$ onto an object $$\mathbf b$$ is given by the general formula

$$\mathbf b \wedge (\mathbf a \vee \mathbf b^\unicode["segoe ui symbol"]{x2606})$$ ,

where the operation in parentheses is the weight contraction of $$\mathbf a$$ with $$\mathbf b$$.

Antiprojections involving points, lines, and planes in the 4D rigid geometric algebra $$\mathcal G_{3,0,1}$$ are shown in the following table.

Projection of Origin

When a point $$\mathbf p$$ is projected onto another geometry, the result can be interpreted as the point on that geometry that is closest to the original point $$\mathbf p$$. In the particular case that $$\mathbf p = \mathbf e_4$$, which is the unitized origin, the projection finds the point on a geometry that is closest to the origin. Specific formulas are listed in the following table.

Projection Formula Description
$$\mathbf g \vee (\mathbf e_4 \wedge \mathbf g^\unicode["segoe ui symbol"]{x2606}) = -g_xg_w \mathbf e_1 - g_yg_w \mathbf e_2 - g_zg_w \mathbf e_3 + (g_x^2 + g_y^2 + g_z^2)\mathbf e_4$$ Point closest to the origin on the plane $$\mathbf g$$.
$$\boldsymbol l \vee (\mathbf e_4 \wedge \boldsymbol l^\unicode["segoe ui symbol"]{x2606}) = (l_{vy} l_{mz} - l_{vz} l_{my})\mathbf e_1 + (l_{vz} l_{mx} - l_{vx} l_{mz})\mathbf e_2 + (l_{vx} l_{my} - l_{vy} l_{mx})\mathbf e_3 + (l_{vx}^2 + l_{vy}^2 + l_{vz}^2)\mathbf e_4$$ Point closest to the origin on the line $$\boldsymbol l$$.

Antiprojection of Horizon

Symmetrically to the projection of the origin, the horizon $$\mathbf g = \mathbf e_{321}$$ (the plane at infinity) can be antiprojected onto a point or line using the bulk contraction. This operation finds the plane containing the geometry that is farthest from the origin. Specific formulas are listed in the following table.

Antiprojection Formula Description
$$\mathbf p \wedge (\mathbf e_{321} \vee \mathbf p^\unicode["segoe ui symbol"]{x2605}) = p_xp_w \mathbf e_{423} + p_yp_w \mathbf e_{431} + p_zp_w \mathbf e_{412} - (p_x^2 + p_y^2 + p_z^2)\mathbf e_{321}$$ Plane farthest from the origin containing the point $$\mathbf p$$.
$$\boldsymbol l \wedge (\mathbf e_{321} \vee \boldsymbol l^\unicode["segoe ui symbol"]{x2605}) = (l_{my} l_{vz} - l_{mz} l_{vy})\mathbf e_{423} + (l_{mz} l_{vx} - l_{mx} l_{vz})\mathbf e_{431} + (l_{mx} l_{vy} - l_{my} l_{vx})\mathbf e_{412} + (l_{mx}^2 + l_{my}^2 + l_{mz}^2)\mathbf e_{321}$$ Plane farthest from the origin containing the line $$\boldsymbol l$$.
