openalea.phenomenal.calibration.transformations.quaternion_from_matrix

openalea.phenomenal.calibration.transformations.quaternion_from_matrix(matrix, isprecise=False)

Return quaternion from rotation matrix.

If isprecise is True, the input matrix is assumed to be a precise rotation matrix and a faster algorithm is used.
