1      Definition

A Data Type representing an Object’s  orientation, velocity, and acceleration.

2      Functional Requirements

  • The Orientation of an Object is that of the principal axis of an Object.
  • The following media types are supported: Audio; Visual; Audio-Visual; Haptic; Smell; RADAR; LiDAR; Ultrasound.
  • Error is the estimated error in the measured value of each of  Orientation,  OrientVelocity, and OrientAccel.
  • Error is assumed to be the same for the three components of each value set.

4      Semantics

Table 1 provides the semantics of the components of Orientation. It should be noted that the Euler angles are indicated by (α,β,γ).
