Hi, Robert part of your problem is setting up the rotation matrix (let's call it rot) such that rot.u==uNew rot.v==vNew rot.w==wNew. A more general form of this problem given n>=3 vectors q[i] and z[i] in 3-space looking for 3*3-matrix rot such that || rot.q[i] - z[i] ||^2 -> Minimum is solved in Arun et al., Least Square Fitting of Two 3-D Point Sets, IEEE Trans. PAMI-9, 698-700 (1985). Hope this helps you, Dipl.-Math. Adalbert Hanszen
