Pose2d

2D rigid transform comprised of heading followed by position.

The pose destPoseSource denotes the transform from frame Source into frame Dest. It can be applied with times() to change the coordinates of xSource into xDest where x is a vector, twist, or even another pose: xDest = destPoseSource * xSource. The awkward names take some getting used to, but they avoid many routine errors.

Transforms into the world frame are common enough to warrant a shorthand. The pose worldPoseSource can be shortened to poseSource for any frame Source.

Advanced: Transforms in two dimensions comprise a Lie group referred to as SE(2). The terminology exp and log comes from the Lie theory, and this paper gives a targeted exposition of the key fundamentals.
