get pitch, yaw, roll from a CMRotationMatrix

问题

I have a CMRotationMatrix *rot and i would like to get the pitch, yaw, roll from the matrix. Any ideas how i could do that?

Thanks

Its better to use the Quaternion than Euler angles.... The roll, pitch and yaw values can be derived from quaternion using these formulae:

roll  = atan2(2*y*w - 2*x*z, 1 - 2*y*y - 2*z*z)
pitch = atan2(2*x*w - 2*y*z, 1 - 2*x*x - 2*z*z)
yaw   =  asin(2*x*y + 2*z*w)

It can be implemented as:

CMQuaternion quat = self.motionManager.deviceMotion.attitude.quaternion;
myRoll = radiansToDegrees(atan2(2*(quat.y*quat.w - quat.x*quat.z), 1 - 2*quat.y*quat.y - 2*quat.z*quat.z)) ;
myPitch = radiansToDegrees(atan2(2*(quat.x*quat.w + quat.y*quat.z), 1 - 2*quat.x*quat.x - 2*quat.z*quat.z));
myYaw = radiansToDegrees(asin(2*quat.x*quat.y + 2*quat.w*quat.z));

where the radianstoDegrees is a preprocessor directive implemented as:

#define radiansToDegrees(x) (180/M_PI)*x

This is done to convert the radian values given by the formulae, to degrees.

More information about the conversion can be found here: tinkerforge and here:Conversion between Quaternions and Euler angles.

In which order? Pitch, yaw and roll, commonly called Euler angles, don't represent rotations unambigously. Depending on the order you carry out the individual sub-rotations you end up with completely different rotation matrices.

My personal recommendation: Don't use Euler angles at all, they just call for (numerical) trouble. Use a matrix (you already do) or a quaternion.

Found it out myself:

CMAttitude *currentAttitude = motionManager.deviceMotion.attitude;    

        if (currentAttitude == nil)
        {
            NSLog(@"Could not get device orientation.");
            return;
        }
        else {
            float PI = 3.14159265;
            float yaw = currentAttitude.yaw * 180/PI;
            float pitch = currentAttitude.pitch * 180/PI;
            float roll = currentAttitude.roll * 180/PI;

        }
