function S = ScrewToAxis(q, s, h) % *** CHAPTER 3: RIGID-BODY MOTIONS *** % Takes q: a point lying on the screw axis, % s: a unit vector in the direction of the screw axis, % h: the pitch of the screw axis. % Returns the corresponding normalized screw axis. % Example Input: % % clear; clc; % q = [3; 0; 0]; % s = [0; 0; 1]; % h = 2; % S = ScrewToAxis(q, s, h) % % Output: % S = % 0 % 0 % 1 % 0 % -3 % 2 S = [s; cross(q, s) + h * s]; end
