V_ROTMR2QR converts a matrix of real quaternion matrices to quaternion vectors Inputs: MR(4m,4n,...) mxn matrix of real quaternion matrices (each 4x4) Outputs: QR(4m,n,...) mxn matrix of real quaternion vectors (each 4x1) In matrix form, quaternions can be multiplied and added using normal matrix arithmetic. Each element of an mxn matrix of quaternions is itself a 4x4 block so the total dimension of MR is 4m x 4n.
