tilt
Syntax
Description
returns the tilt angles based on the specified T
= tilt(orientations
)orientations
. See Tilt Angle Definition for more details.
Examples
Obtain Tilt Angles
Define four sets of Euler angles and obtain their corresponding quaternions.
angles = [0 0 0; 0 0 10; 0 0 170; 0 0 190]; quats = quaternion(angles,"eulerd","ZYX","frame");
Obtain the tilt angles and convert their units to degrees.
tiltAngles = rad2deg(tilt(quats))
tiltAngles = 4×1

Input Arguments
orientations
— Orientations
N-by-1 vector of quaternion
objects | 3-by-3-by-N array of rotation matrices
Orientations, specified as an N-by-1 vector of quaternion
objects or
as a 3-by-3-by-N array of rotation matrices. N is
the total number of orientations.
Output Arguments
T
— Tilt angles
N-element column vector of scalars in range [0, pi]
Tilt angles, in radians, returned as an N-element column vector of scalars in the range [0, pi]. N is the total number of orientations.
More About
Tilt Angle Definition
The tilt angle is defined as the angle between the positive-Z direction of the reference
frame and the positive-z direction of the body frame. The orientations
input defines the rotational coordinate transformation from the reference frame to the body
frame.
