I write a article about how to create a local coordinate system for a dependent 3d model, LOCAL COORDINATE SYSTEM

We can real value in world coordinate system of vector or point on 3D model.
For example, I want to know unit vector on model’s X axis or point’s coordinate on model’s center, local coordinate system can help us.
We can get model’s world coordinate based on local coordinate.
Actually there is a transform which can help us to find local coordinate based on world coordinate value.
We also need a home point and at least two axis vectors to construct the transform.

The example is similar to the article LOCAL COORDINATE SYSTEM

vtkSmartPointer CreateLocalToWorldTransform
    (
    double xDir[3], double yDir[3],
    double zDir[3], double origin[3]
    )
{
    vtkMath::Normalize(xDir);
    vtkMath::Normalize(yDir);
    vtkMath::Normalize(zDir);

    double A[16] = {
        xDir[0], yDir[0], zDir[0], origin[0],
        xDir[1], yDir[1], zDir[1], origin[1],
        xDir[2], yDir[2], zDir[2], origin[2],
        0, 0, 0, 1 };

    vtkMatrix4x4 *localToWorldMatrix = vtkMatrix4x4::New();
    localToWorldMatrix->DeepCopy(A);

    vtkSmartPointer localToWorldTrans = vtkSmartPointer::New();
    localToWorldTrans->Identity();
    localToWorldTrans->SetMatrix(localToWorldMatrix);
    localToWorldMatrix->Delete();

    return localToWorldTrans;
}
