Quaternion notation for general transformations
Up to now transformations have been defined by homogeneous matrices combining a rotation matrix and a translation vector . Now a new notation is introduced to represent a transformation using two quaternions and :
The quaternion is equivalent to and describes the rotation while is defined as and so equivalent to the translation.
Applying such a transformation to a quaternion is done by first rotating with corresponding to the rotation equation and then adding :
Combination of transformations
It is known that a combination of transformations is defined as:
But how can the two quaternions and of the quaternion notation be calculated based on the individual transformations?
