inline Quaternion Squad(Quaternion const &in_right, Quaternion const &in_control1, Quaternion const &in_control2, float in_fraction) const

Spherical cubic interpolation between two Quaternions

Parameters:

• in_right – The Quaternion for interpolation.
• in_control1 – The first control point.
• in_control2 – The second control point.
• in_fraction – Interpolation distance (0 - 1).

Returns:

Result of interpolation.

Public Static Functions

static inline Quaternion ComputeRotation(float in_degrees, HPS::Vector const &in_axis)

Computes a quaternion from a rotation about an axis.

Parameters:

• in_degrees – The angle in degrees to rotate.
• in_axis – The axis to rotate about.

Returns:

The resulting Quaternion object.

static inline Quaternion ComputeRotation(float in_x, float in_y, float in_z)

Computes a quaternion from a rotation around the primary axes.

Parameters:

• in_x – The number of degrees to rotate around the x-axis.
• in_y – The number of degrees to rotate around the y-axis.
• in_z – The number of degrees to rotate around the z-axis.

Returns:

The resulting Quaternion object.
