In this paper, we first introduce [Formula: see text]-Bishop frame for a normal direction curve which is defined as an integral curve of the principal normal of a curve. We express this new frame and its properties. Afterwards, we obtain new spherical images by translating [Formula: see text]-Bishop frame vectors to the center of unit sphere [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text]. Then, these new spherical images are called [Formula: see text]-Bishop spherical images. Additionally, we compute the Frénet–Serret equations of these new spherical images. Moreover, we show that integral curves of [Formula: see text]-Bishop spherical images of slant helices are also slant helices. Finally, we present some illustrated examples.
