frenet_frame — 3D curve op

• Data kinds: points → frame

• Call: import curve3d; curve3d.frenet_frame(curve) (or ops3d.get("frenet_frame"))

Usage

The Frenet frame (tangent T, principal normal N, binormal B) at each point. → (T, N, B), each (Npts,3) unit vectors.

• Sample-data catalog (download URLs / licences) — 2-D uses skimage.data (BSD/public domain) plus synthetic images; 3-D lists download URLs for real data sources (Stanford, PDS, …).

• Operator provenance and references — the sources of the research/methods this op family came from.

Runnable examples (verified samples that actually call this op)

• space_curve — py -3.11 examples_3d/space_curve.py

• torus_knot_curve — py -3.11 examples_3d/torus_knot_curve.py
