Detailed Description

Class that consider the case of a translation vector.

Let us denote $^{a}{\bf t}_{b} = [t_x,t_y,t_z]^\top$ the translation from frame $ a $ to frame $ b $. The representation of a translation is a column vector of dimension 3.

Translations are expressed in meters.

The code below shows how to use a translation vector to build an homogeneous matrix.

#include <visp3/core/vpHomogeneousMatrix.h>
#include <visp3/core/vpRotationMatrix.h>
#include <visp3/core/vpTranslationVector.h>
int main()
{
vpTranslationVector t; // Translation vector
// Initialization of the translation vector
t[0] = 0.2; // tx = 0.2 meters
t[1] = -0.1; // ty = -0.1 meters
t[2] = 1.0; // tz = 1 meters
// Construction of a rotation matrix
vpRotationMatrix R; // Set to identity by default
// Construction of an homogeneous matrix
}
