quaternion-core

Quaternion library written in Rust.

This provides Quaternion operations and interconversion with several attitude representations as generic functions (Supports f32 & f64).

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] quaternion-core = "0.3"

Conversion

Interconversion with 24 different Euler angles (12 each of Intrinsic and Extrinsic) is possible!!

Features

Cargo.toml:

```toml [dependencies.quaternion-core] version = "0.3"

Uncomment if you wish to use FMA.

features = ["fma"]

Uncomment if you wish to use in "no_std" environment.

default-features = false

features = ["libm"]

```

fma

This library uses the muladd method mainly to improve the performance, but by default it is replace with a unfused multiply-add (s*a + b) . If you wish to use muladd method, enable the fma feature.

If your CPU does not support FMA instructions, or if you use libm (running in no_std environment), enabling the fma feature may cause slowdown of computation speed. Also, due to rounding error, results of s.mul_add(a, b) and s*a + b will not match perfectly.

libm & default-features = false

These options allow for use in the no_std environment. In this case, mathematical functions (e.g. sin, cos, sqrt ...) are provided by libm.

Example

src/main.rs:

```rust use quaternion_core as quat;

const PI: f64 = std::f64::consts::PI; const EPSILON: f64 = 1e-12;

fn main() { // Generates a quaternion representing the // rotation of π/2[rad] around the y-axis. let q = quat::fromaxisangle([0.0, 1.0, 0.0], PI/2.0);

// Rotate the point.
let r = quat::point_rotation(q, [2.0, 2.0, 0.0]);

// Check if the calculation is correct.
let diff = quat::sub([0.0, 2.0, -2.0], r);
for val in diff {
    assert!( val.abs() < EPSILON );
}

} ```
