Sensor: Parameter Set Attitude

The Attitude parameter set defines orientation of one set of Axes from VGT relative to another. This parameter set includes the following sub-sets: Quaternion, Euler, DCM and AngleAxis. Quaternion includes four quaternion elements Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4. Euler includes all 12 sequences where within each there are three angles: A, B, C. DCM includes all nine elements of the direction cosine matrix; e.g., XX, XY, etc. AngleAxis includes X, Y, Z components of the unit axis of rotation and RotationAngle.
