Used to create an object with transformation properties such as position, scale, rotation and transform origin vectors and a quaternion in order to compute the model matrix and world matrix.

If an Object3D does not have any parent, then its model matrix and world matrix are the same.

The transformations vectors are reactive to changes, which mean that updating one of their components will automatically update the model matrix and world matrix.
