Description

The VR to MATLAB Coordinates block converts a point with coordinates in the Virtual World coordinate system (Znear) to the MATLAB^® coordinate system (Zup).

The following relation holds between the two coordinate systems:

[x_m, y_m, z_m] = [x_v, -z_v, y_v]

where MATLAB coordinates are denoted with the m subscript and Virtual World coordinates are denoted with the v subscript. For more information on the two coordinate systems, see Virtual World Coordinate System.

Ports

Input

VR — Coordinates in the Virtual World coordinate system

3-element vector

Coordinates of a point in VRML notation, specified as a 3-element row vector.

Data Types: single | double

Output

M — Coordinates in the MATLAB coordinate system

3-element vector

Coordinates of a point in MATLAB notation, returned as a 3-element row vector.

Data Types: single | double

Extended Capabilities

Version History

Introduced in R2019a

R2023b: To be removed

The VR to MATLAB Coordinates will be removed in a future release. Instead, use sim3d classes and Simulation 3D blocks to interface MATLAB and Simulink^® with the Unreal Engine^® 3D simulation environment. To get started, see Create 3D Simulations in Unreal Engine Environment.
