... The answer to the program is [-0:0309731; 0:73499; 0:296108]T, and the calculation
process is very simple, just by calculating
$$ \mathbf{p}_{R_2} = \mathbf{T}_{ R_2, W} \mathbf{T}_{W, R_1} \mathbf{p}_{R_1}. $$
should be:
$$ \mathbf{p}_{R_2} = \mathbf{T}_{ R_2, W} \mathbf{T}_{W, R_1}^{-1} \mathbf{p}_{R_1}. $$
(inverse operator is missing)

Hi @napester ,
Please note that by $$ \mathbf{T}{ R_2, W} \mathbf{T}{W, R_1} \mathbf{p}{R_1} $$ we first convert p{R_1} from R_1 to the World, then from the World to R_2. The equation should be read from right to left, so it is right.

Thanks for clarification, I misread it.
