Purpose & Params

The purpose of to_angle_axis is to find the angle and axis of a given quaterion.

Example

    radian    = (0.5 * np.pi)/2
    axis      = np.array([0,1,0])
    axis_unit = axis / np.linalg.norm(axis)
    q  = quat.Ru(radian, axis_unit)
    print(quat.to_angle_axis(q))

output:

  (0.7853981633974484, array([0., 1., 0.]))
