We take a point sampled on the spline. It gives us information about the sphere located on this point : C(t) the sphere center coordinates and r(t) its radius. We also have their derivatives : C'(t) and r'(t). The idea is to find the intersection between this sphere and the characteristic plane, which would give us the characteristic circle.
If a point P is on the circle, then we can write this formula :
<C'(t),PC(t)> - r'(t)r(t) = 0
$<C'(t),PC(t)> - r'(t)r(t) = 0$
and then we calculate the center of the characteristic circle with this formula :
Cp(t) =C(t) r'(t)r(t)/norm(C'(t))² * C'(t)
$Cp(t) = C(t) r'(t)r(t)/norm(C'(t))² * C'(t)$
