Affine planar transformations matrix

Description

(3 \times 3) affine planar transformation matrix corresponding to reflection, rotation, scaling and translation in projective geometry. To transform a point p multiply the transformation matrix A with the homogeneous coordinates (x,y,z) of p (e.g. p_{transformed} = Ap).

Usage

rotation(theta, pt = NULL)

translation(v)

scaling(s)

reflection(alpha)

Arguments

theta	the angle of the rotation (in radian).
pt	the homogeneous coordinates of the rotation center (optional).
v	the (2 \times 1) translation vector in direction x and y.
s	the (2 \times 1) scaling vector in direction x and y.
alpha	the angle made by the line of reflection (in radian).

Value

A (3 \times 3) affine transformation matrix.

Examples

p1 <- c(2,5,1)  # homogeneous coordinate

# rotation
r_p1 <- rotation(4.5) %*% p1

# rotation centered in (3,1)
rt_p1 <- rotation(4.5, pt=c(3,1,1)) %*% p1

# translation
t_p1 <- translation(c(2,-4)) %*% p1

# scaling
s_p1 <- scaling(c(-3,1)) %*% p1

# plot
plot(t(p1),xlab="x",ylab="y", xlim=c(-5,5),ylim=c(-5,5),asp=1)
