    So I'm sitting here writing a motion controller from scratch and I was wondering what the preference of the experienced programmers is. Do you prefer to use SLERP for its better approximation, or do you use LERP for its ease of use?

    ...or do you not have any clue as to what the hell I am babbling about?

    I'd only use lerp on a low powered system that couldn't handle slerping. You get much smoother realistic results from slerping.

    You should not avoid something that will give much better results just because it's a bit harder to write. You could probably even find some example code to do your slerping on-line anyway.

    I always intended to use SLERP and have already incorporated it into my system. I was just curious as to what everyone else has used.
