Understanding Quaternions (2012)
There's also octonions and sedenions. I prefer the blanket term onion-algebras.

Wow. Thanks for this. But I guess quaternions are much more well known because of their application in Computer Graphics/Vision (which is how I stumbled upon this article)

I think that is because quaternions form a division algebra, but matrices don't (neither do sedenions).
