Orthogonal projections in D6 Coxeter plane

In six-dimensional geometry, a steric 6-cube is a convex uniform 6-polytope. There are unique 4 steric forms of the 6-cube.

Cartesian coordinates

The Cartesian coordinates for the 480 vertices of a steric 6-cube centered at the origin are coordinate permutations:

(±1,±1,±1,±1,±1,±3)

with an odd number of plus signs.
