A plane curve that is the locus of a vertex of given angle $\gamma$ that moves in the plane in such a way that its sides are tangents to a given curve for all positions of the angle. If $\gamma=\pi/2$, then the iso-optic curve is called an ortho-optic curve. For example, the ortho-optic curve of an ellipse is a circle.
