align_vectors

align_vectors(base, target=(0, 0, 1), seq=None)

Compute the rotation matrix or Euler angles required to align an initial vector with a target vector.

Parameters:

baseNDArray

The basis vector.

targetNDArray, optional

The vector to map base to, defaults to (0,0,1).

seqstr, optional

Euler angle convention, None returns a rotation matrix instead.

Returns:

NDArray

Rotation matrix if seq is None otherwise Euler angles in desired convention
