Direction Cosine Matrix Sandbox (Visual Python)

[Peter Hollands]

Folks,

I enclose a small python program that I wrote today, which allowed me to check my understanding of how to convert Euler Angles into a Direction Cosine Matrix (a rotation matrix).There is a small demonstration video here.

It's a very simple program, and unfortunately I had to use the visual python coordinate reference system rather than the UDB aviation coordinate reference system. So I had to re-work some of the maths for visual python.

But despite that, I though it might be of use to someone else in the future, so I'm posting it here.

Best wishes, Pete

Peter,

 

Excellent!  Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
