    Integrating a 3x3 orientation matrix

    I do have to "orthonormalize" the rotation matrix every now and then... what you say interests me though, because for physics simulations, I would think one would want to minimize the accumulation of error...

    Integrating a 3x3 orientation matrix

    Thanks for the response... Yes, you reworded my question correctly (and better :) ) I'm afraid I don't follow the big about differential approximation, it only stirs up memories of a high-school calculus course almost 1 year ago... But as it turns out, I managed to solve the problem. For...

    Integrating a 3x3 orientation matrix

    Hi there, (I hope this post is in the right forum) I'm trying to integrate a 3x3 orientation matrix using a vector representing rotational velocity (in 3d) This is the formula I'm using: newOrientation = orientation + (dt)(~w)(orientation) where w is the vector rotational velocity...
