This example demonstrates the dynamic Frenet-Serret frame for a particle moving along a continuous curve. Key mathematical concepts include derivatives, vectors, and parametric equations. Using GeoGebra commands such as Derivative, CurveCartesian, and Translate, the example dynamically shows the changes in the normal vector, tangent vector, and Frenet-Serret frame. Suitable for high school and above students studying calculus and coordinate geometry.
