AngleAxisType

template<class Derived >

typedef AngleAxis<Scalar> Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::AngleAxisType

the equivalent angle-axis type

Matrix3

template<class Derived >

typedef Matrix<Scalar,3,3> Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::Matrix3

the equivalent rotation matrix type

Vector3

template<class Derived >

typedef Matrix<Scalar,3,1> Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::Vector3

_transformVector()

template<class Derived >

QuaternionBase< Derived >::Vector3 Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::_transformVector

(

const Vector3 &

)

const

inline

return the result vector of v through the rotation

Rotation of a vector by a quaternion.

Remarks

If the quaternion is used to rotate several points (>1) then it is much more efficient to first convert it to a 3x3 Matrix. Comparison of the operation cost for n transformations:

Quaternion2: 30n
Via a Matrix3: 24 + 15n

angularDistance()

template<class Derived >

template<class OtherDerived >

internal::traits<Derived>::Scalar Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::angularDistance

(

const QuaternionBase< OtherDerived > &

other

)

const

inline

Returns: the angle (in radian) between two rotations

See also: dot()

cast()

template<typename NewScalarType >

internal::cast_return_type<Derived,Quaternion<NewScalarType> >::type Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::cast

(

)

const

inline

Returns: *this with scalar type casted to NewScalarType

Note that if NewScalarType is equal to the current scalar type of *this then this function smartly returns a const reference to *this.

coeffs() [1/2]

inline

Returns: a vector expression of the coefficients (x,y,z,w)

conjugate()

inline

Returns: the conjugated quaternion; the conjugate of the *this which is equal to the multiplicative inverse if the quaternion is normalized. The conjugate of a quaternion represents the opposite rotation.

See also: Quaternion2::inverse()

dot()

template<class OtherDerived >

Scalar Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::dot

(

const QuaternionBase< OtherDerived > &

const

inline

Returns: the dot product of *this and other Geometrically speaking, the dot product of two unit quaternions corresponds to the cosine of half the angle between the two rotations.

See also: angularDistance()

(

)

inlinestatic

inverse()

template<class Derived >

See also: QuaternionBase::conjugate()

template<class OtherDerived >

bool Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::isApprox	(	const QuaternionBase< OtherDerived > &	other,
		const RealScalar &	prec = `NumTraits<Scalar>::dummy_precision()`

other

)

const

inline

Returns: true if at least one pair of coefficients of *this and other are not exactly equal to each other.

Warning: When using floating point scalar values you probably should rather use a fuzzy comparison such as isApprox()

template<class Derived >

template<class MatrixDerived >

Derived& Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::operator=

(

const MatrixBase< MatrixDerived > &

xpr

)

Derived & Eigen::QuaternionBase< Derived >::setFromTwoVectors	(	const MatrixBase< Derived1 > &	a,
		const MatrixBase< Derived2 > &	b
	)

inline

Returns: the quaternion which transform a into b through a rotation

Sets *this to be a quaternion representing a rotation between the two arbitrary vectors a and b. In other words, the built rotation represent a rotation sending the line of direction a to the line of direction b, both lines passing through the origin.
