The scalar component is normally referred to as w and the * vector might either be referred to as v or a (for axis) or expanded * with the individual components: (x, y, z) A full quaternion would * then be written as [w (x, y, z)]. * * Quaternions can be considered to represent an axis and angle * pair although sadly these numbers are buried somewhat under some * maths... * * For the curious you can see here that a given axis (a) and angle (šœƒ) * pair are represented in a quaternion as follows: * |[ * [w=cos(šœƒ/2) ( x=sin(šœƒ/2)*a.x, y=sin(šœƒ/2)*a.y, z=sin(šœƒ/2)*a.x )] * ]| * * Unit Quaternions: * When using Quaternions to represent spatial orientations for 3D * graphics it's always assumed you have a unit quaternion. The * magnitude of a quaternion is defined as: * |[ * sqrt (wĀ² + xĀ² + yĀ² + zĀ²) * ]| * and a unit quaternion satisfies this equation: * |[ * wĀ² + xĀ² + yĀ² + zĀ² = 1 * ]| * * Thankfully most of the time we don't actually have to worry about * the maths that goes on behind the scenes but if you are curious to * learn more here are some external references: * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 3D Maths Primer for Graphics and Game Development ISBN-10: 1556229119 * * * * * * * * * * @w: based on the angle of rotation it is cos(šœƒ/2) * @x: based on the angle of rotation and x component of the axis of * rotation it is sin(šœƒ/2)*axis.x * @y: based on the angle of rotation and y component of the axis of * rotation it is sin(šœƒ/2)*axis.y * @z: based on the angle of rotation and z component of the axis of * rotation it is sin(šœƒ/2)*axis.z */ struct _CoglQuaternion { float w; float x; float y; float z; /*< private >*/ float padding0; float padding1; float padding2; float padding3; }; COGL_STRUCT_SIZE_ASSERT (CoglQuaternion, 32); /** * cogl_quaternion_init: * @quaternion: An uninitialized #CoglQuaternion * @angle: The angle you want to rotate around the given axis * @x: The x component of your axis vector about which you want to * rotate. * @y: The y component of your axis vector about which you want to * rotate. * @z: The z component of your axis vector about which you want to * rotate. * * Initializes a quaternion that rotates @angle degrees around the * axis vector (@x, @y, @z).
