Argument Type Description
v Vector Input vector to be unitized.

Example 1

Unitize arbitrary vector 
Intent >unitize(Vector(10000,0,0)) 
--> Vector_(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, WorldFrame())

Example 2

Unitize arbitrary vector 
Intent >unitize(Vector(1,1,0)) 
--> Vector_(0.70710678118655, 0.70710678118655, 0.0, WorldFrame())
