Recently, I’ve been thinking about inverse kinematics for a certain project which I might be doing somewhere in the future. Around the same time, a friend of mine asked me something about complex derivatives. In the end I decided to write this post to clear my own thoughts and to hopefully explain something useful :)

lisyarus explains the complex derivatives so well, it also becomes clear why conformal mapping interesting in complex analysis.

    Cool, except in 3D you still need vectors and matrices (I mean quaternions without the scalar part are just vectors, and I don’t see stretching being relevant for robotic arms)
