Geometric Algebra
Homogeneous coordinates are a system used in projective geometry that allows for the representation of points in a way that facilitates various geometric transformations, including translation, rotation, and scaling. This system extends the traditional Cartesian coordinates by adding an extra dimension, enabling a unified treatment of geometric transformations and providing a way to represent points at infinity, which is crucial in conformal geometry, inversion transformations, and various geometric primitives.
congrats on reading the definition of Homogeneous Coordinates. now let's actually learn it.
