<a name="cogl-2.0-experimental-Eulers-(Rotations).description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>Euler angles are a simple representation of a 3 dimensional
rotation; comprised of 3 ordered heading, pitch and roll rotations.
An important thing to understand is that the axis of rotation
belong to the object being rotated and so they also rotate as each
of the heading, pitch and roll rotations are applied.</p>
<p>One way to consider euler angles is to imagine controlling an
aeroplane, where you first choose a heading (Such as flying south
east), then you set the pitch (such as 30 degrees to take off) and
then you might set a roll, by dipping the left, wing as you prepare
to turn.</p>
<p>They have some advantages and limitations that it helps to be
aware of:</p>
<p>Advantages:</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem">
Easy to understand and use, compared to quaternions and matrices,
so may be a good choice for a user interface.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
Efficient storage, needing only 3 components any rotation can be
represented.
<div class="note">Actually the <a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-Eulers-(Rotations).html#CoglEuler" title="CoglEuler"><span class="type">CoglEuler</span></a> type isn't optimized for size because
we may cache the equivalent <a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-Quaternions-(Rotations).html#CoglQuaternion" title="CoglQuaternion"><span class="type">CoglQuaternion</span></a> along with a euler
rotation, but it would be trivial for an application to track the
components of euler rotations in a packed float array if optimizing
for size was important. The values could be passed to Cogl only when
manipulation is necessary.</div>
</li>
</ul></div>
<p>Disadvantages:</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem">
Aliasing: it's possible to represent some rotations with multiple
different heading, pitch and roll rotations.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
They can suffer from a problem called Gimbal Lock. A good
explanation of this can be seen on wikipedia here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimbal_lock but basically two
of the axis of rotation may become aligned and so you loose a
degree of freedom. For example a pitch of +-90° would mean that
heading and bank rotate around the same axis.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
If you use euler angles to orient something in 3D space and try to
transition between orientations by interpolating the component
angles you probably wont get the transitions you expect as they may
not follow the shortest path between the two orientations.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
There's no standard to what order the component axis rotations are
applied. The most common convention seems to be what we do in Cogl
with heading (y-axis), pitch (x-axis) and then roll (z-axis), but
other software might apply x-axis, y-axis then z-axis or any other
order so you need to consider this if you are accepting euler
rotations from some other software. Other software may also use
slightly different aeronautical terms, such as "yaw" instead of
"heading" or "bank" instead of "roll".
</li>
</ul></div>
<p>To minimize the aliasing issue we may refer to "Canonical Euler"
angles where heading and roll are restricted to +- 180° and pitch is
restricted to +- 90°. If pitch is +- 90° bank is set to 0°.</p>
<p>Quaternions don't suffer from Gimbal Lock and they can be nicely
interpolated between, their disadvantage is that they don't have an
intuitive representation.</p>
<p>A common practice is to accept angles in the intuitive Euler form
and convert them to quaternions internally to avoid Gimbal Lock and
handle interpolations. See <a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-Quaternions-(Rotations).html#cogl-quaternion-init-from-euler" title="cogl_quaternion_init_from_euler ()"><code class="function">cogl_quaternion_init_from_euler()</code></a>.</p>
