SUMMARY:In Defense of Euler Angles in Game Programming
DESCRIPTION:Matthew Whiting (USC)\n\nWhen teaching 3D rotations, the preva
 iling rationale is to avoid Euler angles due to gimbal lock. In many game 
 situations,  quaternion slerp produces undesirable effects while Euler ang
 le interpolation actually results in the correct behavior. Students should
  learn to select rotation representations that produce appropriate motion 
 for the application.\n\nInterest Area: Gaming & Interactive, New Technolog
 ies, Production & Animation, Research & Education\n\nKeyword: Animation, A
