Detailed_Input

     HANDLE   is the handle of the CK file to which the segment will
              be written. The file must have been opened with write
              access.

     BEGTIM,
     ENDTIM   are the beginning and ending encoded SCLK times for
              which the segment provides pointing information.
              BEGTIM must be less than or equal to the SCLK time
              associated with the first pointing instance in the
              segment, and ENDTIM must be greater than or equal to
              the time associated with the last pointing instance
              in the segment.

     INST     is the NAIF integer ID code for the instrument that
              this segment will contain pointing information for.

     REF      is a character string which specifies the inertial
              reference frame of the segment.

              The rotation matrices represented by the quaternions
              that are to be written to the segment transform the
              components of vectors from the inertial reference frame
              specified by REF to components in the instrument fixed
              frame. Also, the components of the angular velocity
              vectors to be written to the segment should be given
              with respect to REF.

              REF should be the name of one of the frames supported
              by the SPICELIB routine FRAMEX.

     AVFLAG   is a logical flag which indicates whether or not the
              segment will contain angular velocity.

     SEGID    is the segment identifier. A CK segment identifier may
              contain up to 40 printable characters and spaces.

     NREC     is the number of pointing instances in the segment.

     SCLKDP   are the encoded spacecraft clock times associated with
              each pointing instance. These times must be strictly
              increasing.

     QUATS    is an array of SPICE-style quaternions representing
              a sequence of C-matrices. See the discussion of
              quaternion styles in $Particulars below.

              The C-matrix represented by the Ith quaternion in
              QUATS is a rotation matrix that transforms the
              components of a vector expressed in the inertial
              frame specified by REF to components expressed in
              the instrument fixed frame at the time SCLKDP(I).

              Thus, if a vector V has components x, y, z in the
              inertial frame, then V has components x', y', z' in
              the instrument fixed frame where:

                   [ x' ]     [          ] [ x ]
                   | y' |  =  |   CMAT   | | y |
                   [ z' ]     [          ] [ z ]

     AVVS     are the angular velocity vectors ( optional ).

              The Ith vector in AVVS gives the angular velocity of
              the instrument fixed frame at time SCLKDP(I). The
              components of the angular velocity vectors should
              be given with respect to the inertial reference frame
              specified by REF.

              The direction of an angular velocity vector gives
              the right-handed axis about which the instrument fixed
              reference frame is rotating. The magnitude of the
              vector is the magnitude of the instantaneous velocity
              of the rotation, in radians per second.

              If AVFLAG is .FALSE. then this array is ignored by the
              routine; however it still must be supplied as part of
              the calling sequence.

     NINTS    is the number of intervals that the pointing instances
              are partitioned into.

     STARTS   are the start times of each of the interpolation
              intervals. These times must be strictly increasing
              and must coincide with times for which the segment
              contains pointing.

Detailed_Output

     None. See $Files section.

Parameters

     None.

Exceptions

     1)  If HANDLE is not the handle of a C-kernel opened for writing,
         an error is signaled by a routine in the call tree of this
         routine.

     2)  If SEGID is more than 40 characters long, the error
         SPICE(SEGIDTOOLONG) is signaled.

     3)  If SEGID contains any non-printable characters, the error
         SPICE(NONPRINTABLECHARS) is signaled.

     4)  If the first encoded SCLK time is negative, the error
         SPICE(INVALIDSCLKTIME) is signaled.

     5)  If the second encoded SCLK or any subsequent times, or if the
         encoded SCLK times are not strictly increasing, the error
         SPICE(TIMESOUTOFORDER) is signaled.

     6)  If BEGTIM is greater than SCLKDP(1) or ENDTIM is less than
         SCLKDP(NREC), the error SPICE(INVALIDDESCRTIME) is signaled.

     7)  If the name of the reference frame is not one of those
         supported by the SPICELIB routine NAMFRM, the error
         SPICE(INVALIDREFFRAME) is signaled.

     8)  If NREC, the number of pointing records, is less than or equal
         to 0, the error SPICE(INVALIDNUMREC) is signaled.

     9)  If NINTS, the number of interpolation intervals, is less than
         or equal to 0, the error SPICE(INVALIDNUMINT) is signaled.

     10) If the encoded SCLK interval start times are not strictly
         increasing, the error SPICE(TIMESOUTOFORDER) is signaled.

     11) If an interval start time does not coincide with a time for
         which there is an actual pointing instance in the segment, the
         error SPICE(INVALIDSTARTTIME) is signaled.

     12) This routine assumes that the rotation between adjacent
         quaternions that are stored in the same interval has a
         rotation angle of THETA radians, where

            0  <=  THETA  <  pi.

         The routines that evaluate the data in the segment produced
         by this routine cannot distinguish between rotations of THETA
         radians, where THETA is in the interval [0, pi), and
         rotations of

            THETA   +   2 * k * pi

         radians, where k is any integer. These `large' rotations
         will yield invalid results when interpolated. You must
         ensure that the data stored in the segment will not be
         subject to this sort of ambiguity.

     13) If any quaternion has magnitude zero, the error
         SPICE(ZEROQUATERNION) is signaled.

     14) If the start time of the first interval and the time of the
         first pointing instance are not the same, the error
         SPICE(TIMESDONTMATCH) is signaled.

Files

     This routine adds a type 3 segment to a C-kernel. The C-kernel
     may be either a new one or an existing one opened for writing.

Particulars

     For a detailed description of a type 3 CK segment please see the
     CK Required Reading.

     This routine relieves the user from performing the repetitive
     calls to the DAF routines necessary to construct a CK segment.


     Quaternion Styles
     -----------------

     There are different "styles" of quaternions used in
     science and engineering applications. Quaternion styles
     are characterized by

     -  The order of quaternion elements

     -  The quaternion multiplication formula

     -  The convention for associating quaternions
        with rotation matrices

     Two of the commonly used styles are

        - "SPICE"

           > Invented by Sir William Rowan Hamilton
           > Frequently used in mathematics and physics textbooks

        - "Engineering"

           > Widely used in aerospace engineering applications


     SPICELIB subroutine interfaces ALWAYS use SPICE quaternions.
     Quaternions of any other style must be converted to SPICE
     quaternions before they are passed to SPICELIB routines.


     Relationship between SPICE and Engineering Quaternions
     ------------------------------------------------------

     Let M be a rotation matrix such that for any vector V,

        M*V

     is the result of rotating V by theta radians in the
     counterclockwise direction about unit rotation axis vector A.
     Then the SPICE quaternions representing M are

        (+/-) (  cos(theta/2),
                 sin(theta/2) A(1),
                 sin(theta/2) A(2),
                 sin(theta/2) A(3)  )

     while the engineering quaternions representing M are

        (+/-) ( -sin(theta/2) A(1),
                -sin(theta/2) A(2),
                -sin(theta/2) A(3),
                 cos(theta/2)       )

     For both styles of quaternions, if a quaternion q represents
     a rotation matrix M, then -q represents M as well.

     Given an engineering quaternion

        QENG   = ( q0,  q1,  q2,  q3 )

     the equivalent SPICE quaternion is

        QSPICE = ( q3, -q0, -q1, -q2 )


     Associating SPICE Quaternions with Rotation Matrices
     ----------------------------------------------------

     Let FROM and TO be two right-handed reference frames, for
     example, an inertial frame and a spacecraft-fixed frame. Let the
     symbols

        V    ,   V
         FROM     TO

     denote, respectively, an arbitrary vector expressed relative to
     the FROM and TO frames. Let M denote the transformation matrix
     that transforms vectors from frame FROM to frame TO; then

        V   =  M * V
         TO         FROM

     where the expression on the right hand side represents left
     multiplication of the vector by the matrix.

     Then if the unit-length SPICE quaternion q represents M, where

        q = (q0, q1, q2, q3)

     the elements of M are derived from the elements of q as follows:

          .-                                                         -.
          |           2    2                                          |
          | 1 - 2*( q2 + q3 )   2*(q1*q2 - q0*q3)   2*(q1*q3 + q0*q2) |
          |                                                           |
          |                                                           |
          |                               2    2                      |
      M = | 2*(q1*q2 + q0*q3)   1 - 2*( q1 + q3 )   2*(q2*q3 - q0*q1) |
          |                                                           |
          |                                                           |
          |                                                   2    2  |
          | 2*(q1*q3 - q0*q2)   2*(q2*q3 + q0*q1)   1 - 2*( q1 + q2 ) |
          |                                                           |
          `-                                                         -'

     Note that substituting the elements of -q for those of q in the
     right hand side leaves each element of M unchanged; this shows
     that if a quaternion q represents a matrix M, then so does the
     quaternion -q.

     To map the rotation matrix M to a unit quaternion, we start by
     decomposing the rotation matrix as a sum of symmetric
     and skew-symmetric parts:

                                        2
        M = [ I  +  (1-cos(theta)) OMEGA  ] + [ sin(theta) OMEGA ]

                     symmetric                   skew-symmetric


     OMEGA is a skew-symmetric matrix of the form

                   .-             -.
                   |  0   -n3   n2 |
                   |               |
         OMEGA  =  |  n3   0   -n1 |
                   |               |
                   | -n2   n1   0  |
                   `-             -'

     The vector N of matrix entries (n1, n2, n3) is the rotation axis
     of M and theta is M's rotation angle. Note that N and theta
     are not unique.

     Let

        C = cos(theta/2)
        S = sin(theta/2)

     Then the unit quaternions Q corresponding to M are

        Q = +/- ( C, S*n1, S*n2, S*n3 )

     The mappings between quaternions and the corresponding rotations
     are carried out by the SPICELIB routines

        Q2M {quaternion to matrix}
        M2Q {matrix to quaternion}

     M2Q always returns a quaternion with scalar part greater than
     or equal to zero.


     SPICE Quaternion Multiplication Formula
     ---------------------------------------

     Given a SPICE quaternion

        Q = ( q0, q1, q2, q3 )

     corresponding to rotation axis A and angle theta as above, we can
     represent Q using "scalar + vector" notation as follows:

        s =   q0           = cos(theta/2)

        v = ( q1, q2, q3 ) = sin(theta/2) * A

        Q = s + v

     Let Q1 and Q2 be SPICE quaternions with respective scalar
     and vector parts s1, s2 and v1, v2:

        Q1 = s1 + v1
        Q2 = s2 + v2

     We represent the dot product of v1 and v2 by

        <v1, v2>

     and the cross product of v1 and v2 by

        v1 x v2

     Then the SPICE quaternion product is

        Q1*Q2 = s1*s2 - <v1,v2>  + s1*v2 + s2*v1 + (v1 x v2)

     If Q1 and Q2 represent the rotation matrices M1 and M2
     respectively, then the quaternion product

        Q1*Q2

     represents the matrix product

        M1*M2

Examples

     The numerical results shown for this example may differ across
     platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as
     input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine
     specific arithmetic implementation.

        When this program is executed, no output is presented on
        screen. After run completion, a new CK file exists in the
        output directory.

Restrictions

     1)  The creator of the segment is given the responsibility for
         determining whether it is reasonable to interpolate between
         two given pointing values.

     2)  This routine assumes that the rotation between adjacent
         quaternions that are stored in the same interval has a
         rotation angle of THETA radians, where

             0  <=  THETA  <  pi.

         The routines that evaluate the data in the segment produced
         by this routine cannot distinguish between rotations of THETA
         radians, where THETA is in the interval [0, pi), and
         rotations of

             THETA   +   2 * k * pi

         radians, where k is any integer. These "large" rotations will
         yield invalid results when interpolated. You must ensure that
         the data stored in the segment will not be subject to this
         sort of ambiguity.

     3)  All pointing instances in the segment must belong to one and
         only one of the intervals.

Version

    SPICELIB Version 3.0.1, 08-JUL-2021 (JDR)

        Edited the header to comply with NAIF standard. Removed
        unnecessary $Revisions section. Changed, in $Exceptions
        entry #7, reference to FRAMEX by NAMFRM.

        Created complete code example from existing fragment.

    SPICELIB Version 3.0.0, 01-JUN-2010 (NJB)

        The check for non-unit quaternions has been replaced
        with a check for zero-length quaternions.

    SPICELIB Version 2.3.0, 26-FEB-2008 (NJB)

        Updated header; added information about SPICE
        quaternion conventions.

        Minor typo in a long error message was corrected.

    SPICELIB Version 2.2.0, 26-SEP-2005 (BVS)

        Added check to ensure that the start time of the first
        interval is the same as the time of the first pointing
        instance.

    SPICELIB Version 2.1.0, 22-FEB-1999 (WLT)

        Added check to make sure that all quaternions are unit
        length to single precision.

    SPICELIB Version 2.0.0, 28-DEC-1993 (WLT)

        The routine was upgraded to support non-inertial reference
        frames.

    SPICELIB Version 1.1.1, 05-SEP-1993 (KRG)

        Removed all references to a specific method of opening the CK
        file in the $Brief_I/O, $Detailed_Input, $Exceptions,
        $Files, and $Examples sections of the header. It is assumed
        that a person using this routine has some knowledge of the DAF
        system and the methods for obtaining file handles.
