Show HN: Rotation via Double Reflection
A developer shares an interactive visualization project demonstrating how geometric transformations like rotation and scaling can be achieved through the composition of reflections. The author highlights the elegance of using reflection as a fundamental geometric operation.
Why it matters
It provides educational value for students and enthusiasts of mathematics and computer graphics by simplifying complex geometric concepts.
While studying Geometric Algebra I have built some interactive visualization to demonstrate how geometric transformations (rotation, scaling, translation) can be constructed by just composing reflections.…
