Using rotational matrices to find the location of a point in a new coordinate system using both matrices and arrays

[Thør]

Overview

This example implements a rotational matrix to give the location of a point in a new coordinate system, given the origin and angle of rotation of the new system, in the method using matrices and arrays.

Description

The following example implements a rotational matrix to give the location of a point in a new coordinate system, given the origin and angle of rotation of the new system.  I've included the method to do this using arrays, for versions of LabVIEW prior to the introduction of matrices (pre-2009).

Requirements

• LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible)

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. Give the origin point (Your X and Your Y) and angle of rotation (Rotation Angle(deg)) and new point(NewX and NewY)
2. Run the VI and the Coordinate position in the updated system control will give the result.
3. The steps are the same in system 2 on the right.
