During a test, it might be relevant what the exact locations of a transducer is. A location can be expressed relative to a defined coordinate system.

Coordinate Systems

...

  • A coordinate system can have one predecessor coordinate system, what can be seen as its parent system.
  • A coordinate system with predecessor 'none' is being seen as the root system, which usually is an inert system.
  • The rotation axis doesn't have to be normalized.
  • To transform from the parent predecessor system to the child successor system, first both the translation and the rotation are expressed in the predecessors system.
  • The right-hand rule is applied , then for defining the rotation angle.
