Plate Project (HDA) Oct. 26, 2025, 8:02 a.m.
NDC coordinates [github.com] are great for projecting plates (photos and videos) from the camera that took them, or Ian Hubert projection tricks [www.youtube.com].

1. Constant Z coordinate
2. Varying Z coordinate using a depth map
3. Raying onto the object
