  These kinematics are for a tripod with point vertices.

  Vertices A, B, and C are the base, and vertex D is the controlled point.
  Three tripod strut lengths AD, BD, and CD are the joints that move
  point D around.

  Point A is the origin, with coordinates (0, 0, 0). Point B lies on the
  x axis, with coordinates (Bx, 0, 0). Point C lies in the xy plane, with
  coordinates (Cx, Cy, 0). Point D has coordinates (Dx, Dy, Dz).

  The controlled Cartesian values are Dx, Dy, and Dz. A frame attached to
  D, say with x parallel to AD and y in the plane ABD, would change its
  orientation as the strut lengths changed. The orientation of this frame
  relative to the world frame is not computed.

  With respect to the kinematics functions,

  pos->tran.x = Dx
  pos->tran.y = Dy
  pos->tran.z = Dz
  pos->a,b,c  = 0

  joints[0] = AD
  joints[1] = BD
  joints[2] = CD

  The inverse kinematics have no singularities. Any values for Dx, Dy, and
  Dz will yield numerical results. Of course, these may be beyond the
  strut length limits, but there are no singular effects like infinite speed.

  The forward kinematics has a singularity due to the triangle inequalities
  for triangles ABD, BCD, and CAD. When any of these approach the limit,
  Dz is zero and D lies in the base plane.

  The forward kinematics flags, referred to in kinematicsForward and
  set in kinematicsInverse, let the forward kinematics select between
  the positive and negative values of Dz for given strut values.
  Dz > 0 is "above", Dz < 0 is "below". Dz = 0 is the singularity.

  fflags == 0 selects Dz > 0,
  fflags != 0 selects Dz < 0.

  The inverse kinematics flags let the inverse kinematics select between
  multiple valid solutions of strut lengths for given Cartesian values
  for D. There are no multiple solutions: D constrains the strut lengths
  completely. So, the inverse flags are ignored.

/*
  forward kinematics takes three strut lengths and computes Dx, Dy, and Dz
  pos->tran.x,y,z, respectively. The forward flag is used to resolve
  D above/below the xy plane. The inverse flags are not set since there
  are no ambiguities going from world to joint coordinates.

  The forward kins are derived as follows:

  1. Let x, y, z be Dx, Dy, Dz to save pixels. Cartesian displacement from
  D to A, B, and C gives

  AD^2 = x^2 + y^2 + z^2
  BD^2 = (x - Bx)^2 + y^2 + z^2
  CD^2 = (x - Cx)^2 + (y - Cy)^2 + z^2

  This yields

  I.   P = x^2 + y^2 + z^2
  II.  Q = x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + sx
  III. R = x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + tx + uy

  Where

  P = AD^2,
  Q = BD^2 - Bx^2
  R = CD^2 - Cx^2 - Cy^2
  s = -2Bx
  t = -2Cx
  u = -2Cy

  II - I gives Q - P = sx, so x = (Q - P)/s, s != 0. The constraint on s
  means that Bx != 0, or points A and B can't be the same.

  III - II gives R - Q = (t - s)x + uy, so y = (R - Q - (t - s)x)/u, u != 0.
  The constraint on u means that Cy != 0, or points A B C can't be collinear.

  Substituting x, y into I gives z = sqrt(P - x^2 - y^2), which has two
  solutions. Positive means the tripod is above the xy plane, negative
  means below.
