Abstract

Rational Bézier curves are discussed from a projective-geometrical point of view. A projectively invariant Bézier representation of rational curves is presented. Geometric continuity of second and third order is characterized by special projective maps. These maps (certain perspective collineations) preserve curvature properties of a curve at a point. As an application, constructions for geometrically continuous joints of rational curves are derived.
