Roll, pitch, and yaw
An object in 3D space can roll, pitch, or yaw.
It can do any
one of the
three in either of two directions.
The object can experience any combination of the following
three rotations:
- yaw left or yaw right (it cannot yaw left
and right at the same
time)
- pitch down or pitch up (it cannot pitch down and up at the same
time)
- roll left or roll right (it cannot roll left
and right at the
same time)
