Inputs | Direction Up |
Outputs | Rotation |
Create a rotation pointing in a given direction, e.g. rotating a character to look that way.
Notes
- The Up vector defaults to (0,1,0) if unwired.
- When converting one direction (vector) into a rotation, there is actually an infinite number of solutions! You can visualize this by picking up an object, say a pencil, and point it in some direction. You'll notice that you can still spin the pencil (thus changing it's rotation) without changing the direction it's pointing. That's why we define a second "Up" vector. It helps define how the pencil should be oriented.
Examples
- Make an object point to another object:
- Angle between two vectors
- Look rotation is also used to create inverse trigonometric functions.
