3D orientation

3D orientation describes how an object is positioned in space relative to a fixed point or axes. It involves three main rotational movements—pitch (tilting up or down), yaw (turning left or right), and roll (tilting side to side). Imagine holding a box and rotating it in these ways: pitching is nodding, yawing is turning your head side to side, and rolling is tipping it side to side. In applications like robotics, gaming, or aerospace, understanding and controlling an object’s 3D orientation is essential for accurate movement and interaction within a spatial environment.
