Stereographic projection is used in geometry as a mapping function. It allows for a sphere to be projected onto a plane which is a way of picturing an 3D object (such as a sphere) as a 2D picture (a plane). The projection is defined on the entire sphere except for at one point, the projection point. The projection point is located at the topmost point of the sphere and is the point where the projection will be sourced. Mathematics Behind the Projection Here is how stereographic projections work! Imagine a sphere above a plane we want to project on to and the top of that sphere (equivalent to the north pole on a globe) will be out projection point N. For any point P’ on the plane, there is a point P on the sphere that is found by drawing a straight line from N to P’. For this week’s project, I have created a sphere with a design cut out that will demonstrate an example of stereographic projection. The design I have chosen is three circles overlapping to create Disney Micky Mouse E...
