In this article general transformations used in the context of robotics and the underlying mathematics are described. All types of transformations can be achieved by matrix multiplication. Basis is at first the multiplication of a vector with the respective identity matrix. The identity matrix corresponds to an empty transformation. So a multiplication with an identity matrix results in the original vector no matter how many dimensions the vector has. The following equations show this for two and three dimensions:
The different types of transformations are presented in the following subarticles:
