Calcuate Euler Angles from Rotation Matrix
% This function return the rotation along x,y and z direction from a
% Rotation Matrix
%Inputs:
% R= 3x3 Rotation Matrix
%Outputs:
% rx= Rotation along x direction in radians
% ry= Rotation along y direction in radians
% rz= Rotation along z direction in radians
% R =
%
% [ cos(ry)*cos(rz), -cos(ry)*sin(rz), sin(ry)]
% [ cos(rx)*sin(rz) + cos(rz)*sin(rx)*sin(ry), cos(rx)*cos(rz) - sin(rx)*sin(ry)*sin(rz), -cos(ry)*sin(rx)]
% [ sin(rx)*sin(rz) - cos(rx)*cos(rz)*sin(ry), cos(rz)*sin(rx) + cos(rx)*sin(ry)*sin(rz), cos(rx)*cos(ry)]
