Defines a 4-element quaternion that represents the orientation of an object in space.
Quaternions are typically used as a replacement for euler angles and rotation matrices as a way to achieve smooth interpolation and avoid gimbal lock.
Note that this quaternion class does not automatically keep the quaternion normalized. Therefore, care must be taken to normalize the quaternion when necessary, by calling the normalize method. This class provides three methods for doing quaternion interpolation: lerp, slerp, and squad.
lerp (linear interpolation): the interpolation curve gives a straight line in quaternion space. It is simple and fast to compute. The only problem is that it does not provide constant angular velocity. Note that a constant velocity is not necessarily a requirement for a curve; slerp (spherical linear interpolation): the interpolation curve forms a great arc on the quaternion unit sphere. Slerp provides constant angular velocity; squad (spherical spline interpolation): interpolating between a series of rotations using slerp leads to the following problems:
Since squad is continuously differentiable, it remedies the first and third problems mentioned above. The slerp method provided here is intended for interpolation of principal rotations. It treats +q and -q as the same principal rotation and is at liberty to use the negative of either input. The resulting path is always the shorter arc.
The lerp method provided here interpolates strictly in quaternion space. Note that the resulting path may pass through the origin if interpolating between a quaternion and its exact negative.
As an example, consider the following quaternions:
q1 = (0.6, 0.8, 0.0, 0.0), q2 = (0.0, 0.6, 0.8, 0.0), q3 = (0.6, 0.0, 0.8, 0.0), and q4 = (-0.8, 0.0, -0.6, 0.0). For the point p = (1.0, 1.0, 1.0), the following figures show the trajectories of p using lerp, slerp, and squad.
