Orientation of e_puck

[Rose111]

Hi,
I used the Remote Api function "simxGetObjectOrientation" to get the orientation of e_puck, and I get it.
But I noticed that the angle Beta changes between [-90,90] degree, and there are 2 possipilities for each angle between that range. I want to get the orientation of e_puck in this range [0,360] to determine the motion of it. How can I do it?

I'm new in Vrep and I need help.
Thank's.

Hello,

not all 3 Euler angles are able to vary between -pi and +pi. This is a particularity of Euler angles. Typically:

• Euler alpha can vary between -pi and +pi
• Euler beta can vary between -pi/2 and +pi/2
• Euler gamma can vary between -pi and +pi

Make sure to read more about Euler angles here, and to know what Euler angle conventions V-REP uses here.

Cheers
