Differential geometry is a pivotal field of mathematics that examines the properties of curves, surfaces and more general manifolds by utilising methods from calculus and linear algebra. Its ...

Geometry may be one of the oldest branches of mathematics, but it’s much more than a theoretical subject. It’s part of our everyday lives, says Professor Jennifer Taback, and key to understanding many ...

Known as the father of descriptive geometry, Gaspard Monge (1746–1818) was born in Beaune, Burgundy in France. Attending college at an early age, Monge showed mathematical talent early on. He drew a ...

From shadow puppetry to videomapping and holography, projection is one of the central activities in moving image practices. Being at the same time a precise geometrical operation and the main ...

At IBC2007, Fraunhofer research scientists are presenting a software system that automatically calibrates projectors so they can project images onto curved surfaces with pixel-precise accuracy.

A VERY practical and useful book by an experienced teacher: it is designed to meet the requirements of students at the Royal School of Mines, at the Royal Military Academy, at Cooper's Hill, and ...
