In this lecture we wrap our heads (and our hands) around left- and right- handed coordinate systems and the concept of chirality.
We also look at a few ways to handle a switching between them so you can avoid the awkward rotational issues that come with importing models from 3d modeling software (traditionally right-handed) to your game engine (traditionally left-handed).
How do you usually handle the switch between coordinate systems?
This is going to be my favorite section! 
To be honest I haven’t really handled the switch between coordinate systems much. In fact, I never really noticed it that much. But now with this video I have an even better understanding of how imported from Blender or Maya can impact the rotation in Game Engines. Thank you for the awesome lecture Gary! 
Thanks KB! Glad you found it helpful.
The most common solution I see (and use) in game dev is to make the model a child of another object. That way you can rotate the model to the correct orientation without affecting the parent.
It’s a quick and easy way to reset things and this approach has other benefits too, like making it easy to swap out the models during development.
The left-handed and right-handed list might need a little update, since Godot now seems to adopt a right-handed coordinate system, since nowdays (checking version 4.0.2) the Z axis is pointing “forward” and X axis is pointing to “the right”.
Enjoying the course so far. Hopefully I will be able to apply much of what I have been taught to shader creation.
