tangentVectors R Documentation
Calculate the tangent cectors of a trajectory object
Description
This function calculates the unit tangent vectors at each point of the trajectory represented
by a 'trajectory' object. The tangent vectors are computed by taking the difference between
consecutive points and normalizing them to have unit length.
Usage
tangentVectors(obj)
Arguments
obj
An object of class 'trajectory' that contains a component 'points'.
Value
A matrix where each row is a unit tangent vector corresponding to each pair of
consecutive points in 'obj$points'.
