Example $8 A$ and $B$ are two fixed points on a plane. Find a point $C$ on the plane such that $\triangle A B C$ forms an isosceles right triangle. There are $\qquad$ such points $C$.
Solution: As shown in Figure 5, the vertices of the two isosceles right triangles with $AB$ as the hypotenuse are $C_{1}$ and $C_{2}$; the vertices of the four isosceles right triangles with $AB$ as the legs are $C_{3}, C_{4}, C_{5}, C_{6}$.

Therefore, there are a total of 6 points $C$ that meet the conditions.
