EQUIRECTANGULAR PROJECTION
n.
The representation of something; delineation; plan; especially, the representation of any object on a perspective plane, or such a delineation as would result were the chief points of the object thrown forward upon the plane, each in the direction of a line drawn through it from a given point of sight, or central point; as, the projection of a sphere. The several kinds of projection differ according to the assumed point of sight and plane of projection in each.
n.
A lateral projection at one end, or between the ends, of a piece, as a rod or bolt, by means of which it is moved.
n.
A little tooth, or like projection.
n.
A projection from the periphery of a revolving piece, acting as a cam to lift another piece.
n.
The transversal part of a church, which crosses at right angles to the greatest length, and between the nave and choir. In the basilicas, this had often no projection at its two ends. In Gothic churches these project these project greatly, and should be called the arms of the transept. It is common, however, to speak of the arms themselves as the transepts.
n.
The quality or state of projecting, or being projected; projection; protrusion.
n.
In ancient armor, a visor, or projection like the peak of a cap, to which a face guard was sometimes attached. This was sometimes fixed, and sometimes moved freely upon the helmet and could be raised like the beaver. Called also umber, and umbril.
n.
A projection from a line of wall, as a fortification, for purposes of defense, as a flanker, either or the same height as the curtain wall or higher.
n.
A hard and sharp-pointed projection from a woody stem; usually, a branch so transformed; a spine.
a.
Having no hard and sharp projections, as spines, prickles, spurs, claws, etc.
n.
A projection on the side, as of a board, which fits into a groove.
n.
A cylindrical projection on each side of a piece, whether gun, mortar, or howitzer, serving to support it on the cheeks of the carriage. See Illust. of Cannon.
a.
Having a conical or rounded projection or protuberance, like a boss.
a.
A salient angle or part; a projection.
n.
An abrupt projection which forms an abutment on an object, or limits motion, etc., as the projection around a tenon at the end of a piece of timber, the part of the top of a type which projects beyond the base of the raised character, etc.
n.
Any projection corresponding to the tooth of an animal, in shape, position, or office; as, the teeth, or cogs, of a cogwheel; a tooth, prong, or tine, of a fork; a tooth, or the teeth, of a rake, a saw, a file, a card.
v. t.
The intersection of a plane of projection, or an original plane, with a coordinate plane.
n.
A projection, or slender appendage or fixture; as, the tongue of a buckle, or of a balance.
