 Given Frame B which is


translated relative to A
by the vector 𝐴𝑃𝐵𝑜𝑟𝑔
and rotated by the
rotation matrix 𝐵𝐴𝑅.

 Given Vector 𝐵𝑃 in
Frame B

Transformation Conceptual Form
The transformation equation

can be rewritten in the conceptual form as

Matrix T is called the


Homogeneous
Conceptual Form: Transform Matix

Transformation (Mapping) Involving Two Frames


Transformation Inversion
Given the homogenous matrix:

Its inversion is given by:

𝐴 𝑇
Not that: 𝐵𝑅 = 𝐵𝐴𝑅−1

𝐴
Exercise: Prove that: 𝐵𝑇 × 𝐵𝐴𝑇 −1 = 𝐼

Transformation (Mapping) Involving Two Frames


Example 1:
The figure shows a frame {B} that is rotated relative to
frame {A} about Zˆ by 30 degrees. Here, Zˆ is pointing
out of the page. Given 𝐵𝑃 = [ 0 2 0 ]T . Find 𝐴𝑃 ?

Example 2:
The figure shows a frame {B}, which is rotated relative to
frame {A} about axis ZA by 30 degrees, translated 10 units
in 𝑋𝐴 and translated 5 units in 𝑌𝐴 . Find 𝐴𝑃, where 𝐵𝑃 = [ 3 30
