Rodrigues' rotation formula

ID: rodrigues-rotation-formula

Rodrigues' rotation formula is a mathematical expression used to rotate a vector in three-dimensional space about an axis. The formula is particularly useful in computer graphics, robotics, and aerospace for calculating the orientation of objects. The formula provides a way to compute the rotation of a vector **v** by an angle θ around a unit vector **k** (which represents the axis of rotation).
