Rational Bzier curve polynomial curve defined in homogeneous coordinates blue and its projection on plane rational curve redIn mathematics, homogeneous coordinates or projective coordinates, introduced by August Ferdinand Mbius in his 1. Der barycentrische Calcl,12 are a system of coordinates used in projective geometry, as Cartesian coordinates are used in Euclidean geometry. They have the advantage that the coordinates of points, including points at infinity, can be represented using finite coordinates. Formulas involving homogeneous coordinates are often simpler and more symmetric than their Cartesian counterparts. Homogeneous coordinates have a range of applications, including computer graphics and 3. D computer vision, where they allow affine transformations and, in general, projective transformations to be easily represented by a matrix. If the homogeneous coordinates of a point are multiplied by a non zero scalar then the resulting coordinates represent the same point. Since homogeneous coordinates are also given to points at infinity, the number of coordinates required to allow this extension is one more than the dimension of the projective space being considered. For example, two homogeneous coordinates are required to specify a point on the projective line and three homogeneous coordinates are required to specify a point in the projective plane. IntroductioneditThe real projective plane can be thought of as the Euclidean plane with additional points added, which are called points at infinity, and are considered to lie on a new line, the line at infinity. There is a point at infinity corresponding to each direction numerically given by the slope of a line, informally defined as the limit of a point that moves in that direction away from the origin. Parallel lines in the Euclidean plane are said to intersect at a point at infinity corresponding to their common direction. Given a point x, y on the Euclidean plane, for any non zero real number Z, the triple x. Z, y. Z, Z is called a set of homogeneous coordinates for the point. By this definition, multiplying the three homogeneous coordinates by a common, non zero factor gives a new set of homogeneous coordinates for the same point. In particular, x, y, 1 is such a system of homogeneous coordinates for the point x, y. For example, the Cartesian point 1, 2 can be represented in homogeneous coordinates as 1, 2, 1 or 2, 4, 2. The original Cartesian coordinates are recovered by dividing the first two positions by the third. Thus unlike Cartesian coordinates, a single point can be represented by infinitely many homogeneous coordinates. The equation of a line through the origin 0, 0 may be written nx my 0 where n and m are not both 0. In parametric form this can be written x mt, y nt. Let Z 1t, so the coordinates of a point on the line may be written mZ, nZ. In homogeneous coordinates this becomes m, n, Z. In the limit, as t approaches infinity, in other words, as the point moves away from the origin, Z approaches 0 and the homogeneous coordinates of the point become m, n, 0. Thus we define m, n, 0 as the homogeneous coordinates of the point at infinity corresponding to the direction of the line nx my 0. As any line of the Euclidean plane is parallel to a line passing through the origin, and since parallel lines have the same point at infinity, the infinite point on every line of the Euclidean plane has been given homogeneous coordinates. To summarize Any point in the projective plane is represented by a triple X, Y, Z, called the homogeneous coordinates or projective coordinates of the point, where X, Y and Z are not all 0. The point represented by a given set of homogeneous coordinates is unchanged if the coordinates are multiplied by a common factor. Conversely, two sets of homogeneous coordinates represent the same point if and only if one is obtained from the other by multiplying all the coordinates by the same non zero constant. When Z is not 0 the point represented is the point XZ, YZ in the Euclidean plane. When Z is 0 the point represented is a point at infinity. Note that the triple 0, 0, 0 is omitted and does not represent any point. The origin is represented by 0, 0, 1. NotationeditSome authors use different notations for homogeneous coordinates which help distinguish them from Cartesian coordinates. The use of colons instead of commas, for example x y z instead of x, y, z, emphasizes that the coordinates are to be considered ratios. Square brackets, as in x, y, z emphasize that multiple sets of coordinates are associated with a single point. Some authors use a combination of colons and square brackets, as in x y z. Other dimensionseditThe discussion in the preceding section applies analogously to projective spaces other than the plane. So the points on the projective line may be represented by pairs of coordinates x, y, not both zero. In this case, the point at infinity is 1, 0. Similarly the points in projective n space are represented by n  1 tuples. Other projective spaceseditThe use of real numbers gives the homogeneous coordinates of points in the classical case of the real projective spaces, however any field may be used, in particular, the complex numbers may be used for complex projective space. For example, the complex projective line uses two homogeneous complex coordinates and is known as the Riemann sphere. Other fields, including finite fields, can be used. Homogeneous coordinates for projective spaces can also be created with elements from a division ring skewfield. However, in this case, care must be taken to account for the fact that multiplication may not be commutative. Alternative definitioneditAnother definition of the real projective plane can be given in terms of equivalence classes. For non zero elements of R3, define x. Then is an equivalence relation and the projective plane can be defined as the equivalence classes of R3 0. If x, y, z is one of the elements of the equivalence class p then these are taken to be homogeneous coordinates of p. Lines in this space are defined to be sets of solutions of equations of the form ax by cz 0 where not all of a, b and c are zero. The condition ax by cz 0 depends only on the equivalence class of x, y, z so the equation defines a set of points in the projective plane. The mapping x, y x, y, 1 defines an inclusion from the Euclidean plane to the projective plane and the complement of the image is the set of points with z 0. This is the equation of a line according to the definition and the complement is called the line at infinity. The equivalence classes, p, are the lines through the origin with the origin removed. The origin does not really play an essential part in the previous discussion so it can be added back in without changing the properties of the projective plane. This produces a variation on the definition, namely the projective plane is defined as the set of lines in R3 that pass through the origin and the coordinates of a non zero element x, y, z of a line are taken to be homogeneous coordinates of the line. These lines are now interpreted as points in the projective plane. Again, this discussion applies analogously to other dimensions.
