Hi guys,
How to compute the unit vector given the direction? Is there any function in matlab to do this task.
Thanks

For angle theta in radians,
%[x, y] = pol2cart(1, theta); %-> incorrect
[x, y] = pol2cart(theta, 1); %repaired

It's unusual that the inputs to the function don't match the "r-theta" convention that is used so often to identify the coordinate space.

If vector 'v' points in the desired direction, then do this to make it a unit vector:
v = v/norm(v);

Given the angle
theta
in radians (counter-clockwise is positive theta, theta = 0 points in the positive x-direction) your unit vector is
u = [cos(theta),sin(theta)]
