align_vectors

align_vectors(base, target=(0, 0, 1), **kwargs)

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

Output convention.

Deprecated since version 0.3.2: Returns rotation matrices always.

Returns:

NDArray

Rotation matrix mapping base to target.
