Euler angles
The
Euler angles
are three angles introduced by
Leonhard Euler
to describe the
orientation
of a
rigid body
. To describe such an orientation in
3-dimensional
Euclidean space
three parameters are required. They can be given in several ways, Euler angles being one of them; see
charts on SO(3)
for others. Euler angles are also used to describe the orientation of a
frame of reference
(typically, a
coordinate system
or
basis
) relative to another. They are typically denoted as
α
,
β
,
γ
, or
φ
,
θ
,
ψ
.
