Subject: [PATCH v7 5/6] iio: ABI: Add partial quaternion modifier
Date: Wed,  4 Mar 2026 09:07:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260304080706.2844472-1-flavra@baylibre.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260304080519.2844101-1-flavra@baylibre.com>

This modifier applies to the IIO_ROT channel type, and indicates a data
representation that specifies the {x, y, z} components of the normalized
quaternion vector.

+Description:
+		Raw value of {x, y, z} components of the quaternion vector. These
+		components represent the axis about which a rotation occurs, and are
+		subject to the following costraints:
+		- the quaternion vector is normalized, i.e. x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + w^2 = 1
+		- the rotation angle is within the [-180, 180] range, i.e. the w
+		  component (which represents the amount of rotation) is non-negative
+		These constraints allow the w value to be calculated from the other
+		components: w = sqrt(1 - (x^2 + y^2 + z^2)).
