The line at infinity<br />

◮ The line at infinity (l ∞ ): is the line of equation X 3 = 0.<br />

Thus, the homogeneous representation of l ∞ is (0, 0, 1).<br />

◮ The line (u 1 , u 2 , u 3 ) intersects l ∞ at the point (−u 2 , u 1 , 0).<br />

◮ Points on l ∞ are directions of affine lines in the embedded<br />

affine space (can be extended to higher dimensions).<br />
