Vector projection: Applications, Measurement & Products

The vector projection (also known as the vector component or vector resolution) of a vector a on (or onto) a non-zero vector b is the orthogonal projection of a onto a straight line parallel to b. The projection of a onto b is often written as proj b ⁡ a {\displaystyle \operatorname {proj} _{\mathbf {b} }\mathbf {a} } or a∥b.
