An exploration of different methods for representing 3D rotations, from Euler angles to quaternions, highlighting their advantages and limitations. The discussion covers historical challenges like gimbal lock in the Apollo missions and demonstrates how quaternions solve discontinuity issues in rotation representation. The text concludes with insights into four-degree-of-freedom gimbal systems and their practical applications.
