Dear Sir or Madam,
Currently I am trying to transform a set of 3D points from one referential to another. This is done by multiplying each individual 3D point by a rotation matrix and a translation vector. I would like to create a function which would accept as arguments:
- v1 = {{x1,y1,z1},{x2,y2,z2},{x3,y3,z3}...} (a vector)
- the rotations: alpha, theta, gama, (3 variables)
- the translations: tx, ty, tz (3 variables)
and the output would be a vector with the transformed points:
- v2 = {{x1',y1',z1'},{x2',y2',z2'},{x3',y3'z3'}}
this function would be something like:
F[v2_] = [v1, alpha, theta, gama, tx, ty, tz]
{
Rotation = Rotx * Roty * Rotz
Translation = {tx, ty, tz, 0}
for [ i = 0, i < length(v1), i++
v2{i} = Rotation*translation*v1{i}
]
]
I tried to find more complex examples with for statements and function definitions to discover how to start but the true is that I am new in Mathematica and I do not even know if this can be done. I would be glad to have some tips on how to achieve this with a function to run the vector and make the transformation inside its scope.
Thank you
Cheers,
Roserio
