We introduce the n-dimensional generalization of the point to circle mapping defined and studied by K. Rabl and show that our generalization can be used effectively to solve three-dimensional Apollonius-type problems. To carry out the constructions in practice, we use on the one hand a simple computer algorithm via Maple, on the other hand some tools of projective and descriptive geometry, including Maurin's projection of the four-space. In the two-dimensional case we present a simple direct method of construction based on elementary projective geometry.
