Matrix: Revision – 22/01/21

In todays session we done some matrix revision and learned about transpose and inverse.

Addition – add the numbers in the corresponding spaces of each matrix
Subtraction – Subtract the numbers from the corresponding spaces of each matrix
Transpose – Rows from Left to right, become columns top to down.
Inverse – Swap top left and bottom right and make surrounding numbers negative.

We then went and done some further revision by solving some matrix math problems.

Where are certain matrices used in video games?

Multiplication Matrix may be used in video games such as call of duty when a player picks up a gun. The effect this would have is for the gun to have the same orientation as the player when it is being picked up and moved.

Matrix Transpose may be used when you are inspecting a weapon in call of duty, this helps with the weapon rotation.

Matrix Inversion would be when a player has dropped a weapon and the player needs to revert back to its original state.
