conjugate¶

This function computes the conjugate of a quaternion or a collection of quaternions. A quaternion is represented as a 1x4 vector [real, i, j, k], where the first element is the real part and the remaining three elements represent the imaginary components. The function handles single quaternions (1x4 vectors) and collections of quaternions (Nx4 matrices).

Syntax¶

function q = conjugate(q)

Calling Pattern¶

mr.aux.quat.conjugate(...)

Parameters¶

Required Parameters¶

Name	Type	Description	Example	Units
`q`	double	A single quaternion (1x4 vector) or a collection of quaternions (Nx4 matrix).	`[1, 2, 3, 4]`

Returns¶

Output	Type	Description
`q`	double	The conjugate of the input quaternion or quaternions. For a single quaternion, this is a 1x4 vector. For a collection of quaternions, this is an Nx4 matrix.

Examples¶

q_conj = mr.aux.quat.conjugate([1, 2, 3, 4]);
q_conj_matrix = mr.aux.quat.conjugate([[1, 2, 3, 4]; [5, 6, 7, 8]]);
