Orthonormalize#
Computes the orthonormalized matrix from an input matrix or array of matrices. In practice, this involves treating the columns (or rows, depending on whether column-major or row-major semantics are being utilized for matrix descriptions - in mathematics the former is often used, while in computer graphics the latter tends to be preferred) of each input matrix as independent vectors that span some N-dimensional space (N being the number of column or row vectors in the matrix) and finding another set of mutually-perpendicular vectors that span the same space before normalizing each one (hence the term “orthonormal”; also see the so-called “Gram-Schmidt Process” that details exactly how one can go about performing this computation); these new sets of vectors can then be combined to form the “orthonormal” versions of each input matrix.
