public interface EuclideanTransform<V extends EuclideanVector<V>>
extends Transform<V>

Interface representing affine transforms in Euclidean space. An affine transform is one that preserves points, straight lines, planes, and sets of parallel lines. Common affine transforms include translation, rotation, scaling, reflection and any compositions thereof.

Method Detail

applyVector

V applyVector(V vec)

Apply this transform to the given vector, ignoring translations.

This method can be used to transform vector instances representing displacements between points. For example, if v represents the difference between points p1 and p2, then transform.applyVector(v) will represent the difference between p1 and p2 after transform is applied.

Parameters:

vec - the vector to transform

Returns:

the new, transformed vector
