Orthogonal Projections
The truncated cuboctahedron has two special orthogonal projections in the A2 and B2 Coxeter planes with and projective symmetry, and numerous symmtries can be constructed from various projected planes relative to the polyhedron elements.

Famous quotes containing the word projections:
“Predictions of the future are never anything but projections of present automatic processes and procedures, that is, of occurrences that are likely to come to pass if men do not act and if nothing unexpected happens; every action, for better or worse, and every accident necessarily destroys the whole pattern in whose frame the prediction moves and where it finds its evidence.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
