Package 'rayrender' reference manual

Title:	Build and Raytrace 3D Scenes
Description:	Render scenes using pathtracing. Build 3D scenes out of spheres, cubes, planes, disks, triangles, cones, curves, line segments, cylinders, ellipsoids, and 3D models in the 'Wavefront' OBJ file format or the PLY Polygon File Format. Supports several material types, textures, multicore rendering, and tone-mapping. Based on the "Ray Tracing in One Weekend" book series. Peter Shirley (2018) <https://raytracing.github.io>.

Add Object

Description

Add Object

Usage

add_object(scene, objects = NULL)
add_object(scene, objects = NULL)

Arguments

`scene`	Tibble of pre-existing object locations and properties.
`objects`	A tibble row or collection of rows representing each object.

Value

Tibble of object locations and properties.

Examples

#Generate the ground and add some objects
scene = generate_ground(depth=-0.5,material = diffuse(checkercolor="blue")) %>%
  add_object(cube(x=0.7,
                  material=diffuse(noise=5,noisecolor="purple",color="black",noisephase=45),
                  angle=c(0,-30,0))) %>%
  add_object(sphere(x=-0.7,radius=0.5,material=metal(color="gold")))
if(run_documentation()) {
render_scene(scene,parallel=TRUE)
}
#Generate the ground and add some objects
scene = generate_ground(depth=-0.5,material = diffuse(checkercolor="blue")) %>%
  add_object(cube(x=0.7,
                  material=diffuse(noise=5,noisecolor="purple",color="black",noisephase=45),
                  angle=c(0,-30,0))) %>%
  add_object(sphere(x=-0.7,radius=0.5,material=metal(color="gold")))
if(run_documentation()) {
render_scene(scene,parallel=TRUE)
}

This function animates an object between two states. This animates objects separately from the transformations set in 'group_objects()' and in the object transformations themselves. This creates motion blur, controlled by the shutter open/close options in 'render_scene()'.

Usage

animate_objects(
  scene,
  start_time = 0,
  end_time = 1,
  start_pivot_point = c(0, 0, 0),
  start_position = c(0, 0, 0),
  start_angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  start_order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  start_scale = c(1, 1, 1),
  start_axis_rotation = NA,
  end_pivot_point = c(0, 0, 0),
  end_position = c(0, 0, 0),
  end_angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  end_order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  end_scale = c(1, 1, 1),
  end_axis_rotation = NA
)
animate_objects(
  scene,
  start_time = 0,
  end_time = 1,
  start_pivot_point = c(0, 0, 0),
  start_position = c(0, 0, 0),
  start_angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  start_order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  start_scale = c(1, 1, 1),
  start_axis_rotation = NA,
  end_pivot_point = c(0, 0, 0),
  end_position = c(0, 0, 0),
  end_angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  end_order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),

Arrow Object

Description

Composite object (cone + segment)

Usage

arrow(
  start = c(0, 0, 0),
  end = c(0, 1, 0),
  radius_top = 0.2,
  radius_tail = 0.1,
  tail_proportion = 0.5,
  direction = NA,
  from_center = TRUE,
  material = diffuse(),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)
arrow(
  start = c(0, 0, 0),
  end = c(0, 1, 0),
  radius_top = 0.2,
  radius_tail = 0.1,
  tail_proportion = 0.5,
  direction = NA,
  from_center = TRUE,
  material = diffuse(),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)

Arguments

`start`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Base of the arrow, specifying 'x', 'y', 'z'.
`end`	Default 'c(0, 1, 0)'. Tip of the arrow, specifying 'x', 'y', 'z'.
`radius_top`	Default '0.5'. Radius of the top of the arrow.
`radius_tail`	Default '0.2'. Radius of the tail of the arrow.
`tail_proportion`	Default '0.5'. Proportion of the arrow that is the tail.
`direction`	Default 'NA'. Alternative to 'start' and 'end', specify the direction (via a length-3 vector) of the arrow. Arrow will be centered at 'start', and the length will be determined by the magnitude of the direction vector.
`from_center`	Default 'TRUE'. If orientation specified via 'direction', setting this argument to 'FALSE' will make 'start' specify the bottom of the cone, instead of the middle.
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Notes: this will change the stated start/end position of the cone. Emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the cone in the scene.

Cone Object

Description

Cone Object

Usage

cone(
  start = c(0, 0, 0),
  end = c(0, 1, 0),
  radius = 0.5,
  direction = NA,
  from_center = TRUE,
  material = diffuse(),
  angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)
cone(
  start = c(0, 0, 0),
  end = c(0, 1, 0),
  radius = 0.5,
  direction = NA,
  from_center = TRUE,
  material = diffuse(),
  angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)

Arguments

`start`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Base of the cone, specifying 'x', 'y', 'z'.
`end`	Default 'c(0, 1, 0)'. Tip of the cone, specifying 'x', 'y', 'z'.
`radius`	Default '1'. Radius of the bottom of the cone.
`direction`	Default 'NA'. Alternative to 'start' and 'end', specify the direction (via a length-3 vector) of the cone. Cone will be centered at 'start', and the length will be determined by the magnitude of the direction vector.
`from_center`	Default 'TRUE'. If orientation specified via 'direction', setting this argument to 'FALSE' will make 'start' specify the bottom of the cone, instead of the middle.
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`angle`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Rotation angle. Note: This will change the 'start' and 'end' coordinates.
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Notes: this will change the stated start/end position of the cone. Emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the cone in the scene.

Create Instances of an Object

Description

This creates multiple instances of the ‘ray_scene' passed, each with it’s own transformation applied (measured from the origin of the ray_scene). This means the scene only uses the memory of the object once and each copy only requires a 4x4 matrix in memory.

Usage

create_instances(
  ray_scene,
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  z = 0,
  angle_x = 0,
  angle_y = 0,
  angle_z = 0,
  scale_x = 1,
  scale_y = 1,
  scale_z = 1,
  material = diffuse(),
  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3)
)
create_instances(
  ray_scene,
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  z = 0,
  angle_x = 0,
  angle_y = 0,
  angle_z = 0,
  scale_x = 1,
  scale_y = 1,
  scale_z = 1,
  material = diffuse(),
  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3)
)

Arguments

`ray_scene`	A 'ray_scene' object to be copied at the specified transformed coordinates.
`x`	Default '0'. A vector of x-coordinates to offset the instances. Note that this can also be a 3 column matrix or 'data.frame()' parsable by 'xyz.coords()': if so, the other axes will be ignored.
`y`	Default '0'. A vector of y-coordinates to offset the instances.
`z`	Default '0'. A vector of z-coordinates to offset the instances.
`angle_x`	Default '0'. A vector of angles around the x axis to rotate the instances.
`angle_y`	Default '0'. A vector of angles around the y axis to rotate the instances.
`angle_z`	Default '0'. A vector of angles around the z axis to rotate the instances.
`scale_x`	Default '0'. A vector of values around the scale the instances on the x-axis.
`scale_y`	Default '0'. A vector of values around the scale the instances on the y-axis.
`scale_z`	Default '0'. A vector of values around the scale the instances on the z-axis.
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`order_rotation`	Default 'c(1, 2, 3)'. The order to apply the rotations, referring to "x", "y", and "z" axes.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the instance in the scene.

Description

CSG Group

Usage

csg_group(object_list)
csg_group(object_list)

Arguments

object_list

List of objects created with the csg_* functions. This will make all further operations be applied to this object as a group.

Value

List describing the group in the scene.

Examples

if(run_documentation()) {
#Group four spheres together and merge them with a box:
generate_ground(material=diffuse(checkercolor="grey20")) %>% 
  add_object(csg_object(csg_combine(
  csg_group(list(csg_sphere(x=1,z=1, radius=0.5),csg_sphere(x=-1,z=1, radius=0.5),

Constructive Solid Geometry Object

Description

This object takes an object constructed using the 'csg_*' functions. The object is drawn using ray marching/sphere tracing.

Usage

csg_object(
  object,
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  z = 0,
  material = diffuse(),
  angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)
csg_object(
  object,
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  z = 0,
  material = diffuse(),
  angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)

Arguments

`object`	Object created with CSG interface.
`x`	Default '0'. x-offset of the center of the object.
`y`	Default '0'. y-offset of the center of the object.
`z`	Default '0'. z-offset of the center of the object.
`material`	Default `diffuse`. The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`angle`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Angle of rotation around the x, y, and z axes, applied in the order specified in 'order_rotation'.
`order_rotation`	Default 'c(1, 2, 3)'. The order to apply the rotations, referring to "x", "y", and "z".
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Note: emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.

Details

Note: For dielectric objects, any other objects not included in the CSG object and nested inside will be ignored.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the sphere in the scene.

CSG Onion

Description

Note: This operation has no overt effect on the external appearance of an object–it carves regions on the interior. Thus, you will only see an effect with a transparent material or when you carve into the object.

Usage

csg_onion(object, thickness = 0.1)
csg_onion(object, thickness = 0.1)

Arguments

`object`	CSG object.
`thickness`	Default '0.1'. Onioning distance.

Value

List describing the triangle in the scene.

Dielectric (glass) Material

Description

Dielectric (glass) Material

Usage

dielectric(
  color = "white",
  refraction = 1.5,
  attenuation = c(0, 0, 0),
  attenuation_intensity = 1,
  priority = 0,
  importance_sample = FALSE,
  bump_texture = NA,
  bump_intensity = 1
)
dielectric(
  color = "white",
  refraction = 1.5,
  attenuation = c(0, 0, 0),
  attenuation_intensity = 1,
  priority = 0,
  importance_sample = FALSE,
  bump_texture = NA,
  bump_intensity = 1
)

Arguments

`color`	Default 'white'. The color of the surface. Can be either a hexadecimal code, R color string, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`refraction`	Default '1.5'. The index of refraction.
`attenuation`	Default 'c(0,0,0)'. The Beer-Lambert color-channel specific exponential attenuation through the material. Higher numbers will result in less of that color making it through the material. If a character string is provided (either as a named R color or a hex string), this will be converted to a length-3 vector equal to one minus the RGB color vector, which should approximate the color being passed. Note: This assumes the object has a closed surface.
`attenuation_intensity`	Default '1'. Changes the attenuation by a multiplicative factor. Values lower than one will make the dielectric more transparent, while values greater than one will make the glass more opaque.
`priority`	Default '0'. When two dielectric materials overlap, the one with the lower priority value is used for intersection. NOTE: If the camera is placed inside a dielectric object, its priority value will not be taken into account when determining hits to other objects also inside the object.
`importance_sample`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', the object will be sampled explicitly during the rendering process. If the object is particularly important in contributing to the light paths in the image (e.g. light sources, refracting glass ball with caustics, metal objects concentrating light), this will help with the convergence of the image.
`bump_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix, array, or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify a bump map for the surface.
`bump_intensity`	Default '1'. Intensity of the bump map. High values may lead to unphysical results.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the dielectric material.

  bump_intensity = 1,
  fog = FALSE,
  fogdensity = 0.01,
  sigma = NULL,
  importance_sample = FALSE
)

Arguments

`color`	Default 'white'. The color of the surface. Can be either a hexadecimal code, R color string, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`checkercolor`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', determines the secondary color of the checkered surface. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`checkerperiod`	Default '3'. The period of the checker pattern. Increasing this value makes the checker pattern bigger, and decreasing it makes it smaller
`noise`	Default '0'. If not '0', covers the surface in a turbulent marble pattern. This value will determine the amount of turbulence in the texture.
`noisephase`	Default '0'. The phase of the noise. The noise will repeat at '360'.
`noiseintensity`	Default '10'. Intensity of the noise.
`noisecolor`	Default '#000000'. The secondary color of the noise pattern. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`gradient_color`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', creates a secondary color for a linear gradient between the this color and color specified in 'color'. Direction is determined by 'gradient_transpose'.
`gradient_transpose`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', this will use the 'v' coordinate texture instead of the 'u' coordinate texture to map the gradient.
`gradient_point_start`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'color'.
`gradient_point_end`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'gradient_color'.
`gradient_type`	Default 'hsv'. Colorspace to calculate the gradient. Alternative 'rgb'.
`image_texture`	Default 'NA'. A 3-layer RGB array or filename to be used as the texture on the surface of the object.
`image_repeat`	Default '1'. Number of times to repeat the image across the surface. 'u' and 'v' repeat amount can be set independently if user passes in a length-2 vector.
`alpha_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify the transparency.
`bump_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix, array, or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify a bump map for the surface.
`bump_intensity`	Default '1'. Intensity of the bump map. High values may lead to unphysical results.
`fog`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', the object will be a volumetric scatterer.
`fogdensity`	Default '0.01'. The density of the fog. Higher values will produce more opaque objects.
`sigma`	Default 'NULL'. A number between 0 and Infinity specifying the roughness of the surface using the Oren-Nayar microfacet model. Higher numbers indicate a roughed surface, where sigma is the standard deviation of the microfacet orientation angle. When 0, this reverts to the default lambertian behavior.
`importance_sample`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', the object will be sampled explicitly during the rendering process. If the object is particularly important in contributing to the light paths in the image (e.g. light sources, refracting glass ball with caustics, metal objects concentrating light), this will help with the convergence of the image.

Value

  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)

Arguments

`points`	Either a list of length-3 numeric vectors or 3-column matrix/data.frame specifying the x/y/z points that the path should go through.
`x`	Default '0'. x-coordinate offset for the path.
`y`	Default '0'. y-coordinate offset for the path.
`z`	Default '0'. z-coordinate offset for the path.
`polygon`	Defaults to a circle. A polygon with no holes, specified by a data.frame() parsable by 'xy.coords()'. Vertices are taken as sequential rows. If the polygon isn't closed (the last vertex equal to the first), it will be closed automatically.
`polygon_end`	Defaults to 'polygon'. If specified, the number of vertices should equal the to the number of vertices of the polygon set in ‘polygon'. Vertices are taken as sequential rows. If the polygon isn’t closed (the last vertex equal to the first), it will be closed automatically.
`breaks`	Defaults to '20' times the number of control points in the bezier curve.
`closed`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', the path will be closed by smoothly connecting the first and last points, also ensuring the final polygon is aligned to the first.
`closed_smooth`	Default 'TRUE'. If 'closed = TRUE', this will ensure C2 (second derivative) continuity between the ends. If 'closed = FALSE', the curve will only have C1 (first derivative) continuity between the ends.
`polygon_add_points`	Default '0'. Positive integer specifying the number of points to fill in between polygon vertices. Higher numbers can give smoother results (especially when combined with 'smooth_normals = TRUE'.
`twists`	Default '0'. Number of twists in the polygon from one end to another.
`texture_repeats`	Default '1'. Number of times to repeat the texture along the length of the path.
`straight`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', straight lines will be used to connect the points instead of bezier curves.
`precomputed_control_points`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', 'points' argument will expect a list of control points calculated with the internal rayrender function 'rayrender:::calculate_control_points()'.
`width`	Default '0.1'. Curve width. If 'width_ease == "spline"', 'width' is specified in a format that can be read by 'xy.coords()' (with 'y' as the width), and the 'x' coordinate is between '0' and '1', this can also specify the exact positions along the curve for the corresponding width values. If a numeric vector, specifies the different values of the width evenly along the curve. If not a single value, 'width_end' will be ignored.
`width_end`	Default 'NA'. Width at end of path. Same as 'width', unless specified. Ignored if multiple width values specified in 'width'.
`width_ease`	Default 'spline'. Ease function between width values. Other options: 'linear', 'quad', 'cubic', 'exp'.
`smooth_normals`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to smooth the normals of the polygon to remove sharp angles.
`u_min`	Default '0'. Minimum parametric coordinate for the path. If 'closed = TRUE', values greater than one will refer to the beginning of the loop (but the path will be generated as two objects).
`u_max`	Default '1'. Maximum parametric coordinate for the path. If 'closed = TRUE', values greater than one will refer to the beginning of the loop (but the path will be generated as two objects).
`linear_step`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether the polygon intervals should be set at linear intervals, rather than intervals based on the underlying bezier curve parameterization.
`end_caps`	Default 'c(TRUE, TRUE)'. Specifies whether to add an end cap to the beginning and end of a path.
`material`	Default `diffuse`. The material, called from one of the material functions.
`material_caps`	Defaults to the same material set in 'material'. Note: emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.
`angle`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Angle of rotation around the x, y, and z axes, applied in the order specified in 'order_rotation'.
`order_rotation`	Default 'c(1, 2, 3)'. The order to apply the rotations, referring to "x", "y", and "z".
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the cube in the scene.

  polygon = NULL,
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  z = 0,
  plane = "xz",
  top = 1,
  bottom = 0,
  holes = NULL,

)

Arguments

`polygon`	'sf' object, "SpatialPolygon" 'sp' object, or xy coordinates of polygon represented in a way that can be processed by 'xy.coords()'. If xy-coordinate based polygons are open, they will be closed by adding an edge from the last point to the first. If the 'sf' object contains MULTIPOLYGONZ data, it will flattened.
`x`	Default '0'. x-coordinate to offset the extruded model.
`y`	Default '0'. y-coordinate to offset the extruded model.
`z`	Default '0'. z-coordinate to offset the extruded model.
`plane`	Default 'xz'. The plane the polygon is drawn in. All possibile orientations are 'xz', 'zx', 'xy', 'yx', 'yz', and 'zy'.
`top`	Default '1'. Extruded top distance. If this equals 'bottom', the polygon will not be extruded and just the one side will be rendered.
`bottom`	Default '0'. Extruded bottom distance. If this equals 'top', the polygon will not be extruded and just the one side will be rendered.
`holes`	Default '0'. If passing in a polygon directly, this specifies which index represents the holes in the polygon. See the 'earcut' function in the 'decido' package for more information.
`angle`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Angle of rotation around the x, y, and z axes, applied in the order specified in 'order_rotation'.
`order_rotation`	Default 'c(1, 2, 3)'. The order to apply the rotations, referring to "x", "y", and "z".
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`center`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to center the polygon at the origin.
`flip_horizontal`	Default 'FALSE'. Flip polygon horizontally in the plane defined by 'plane'.
`flip_vertical`	Default 'FALSE'. Flip polygon vertically in the plane defined by 'plane'.
`data_column_top`	Default 'NULL'. A string indicating the column in the 'sf' object to use to specify the top of the extruded polygon.
`data_column_bottom`	Default 'NULL'. A string indicating the column in the 'sf' object to use to specify the bottom of the extruded polygon.
`scale_data`	Default '1'. If specifying 'data_column_top' or 'data_column_bottom', how much to scale that value when rendering.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Note: emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.

Value

Multiple row tibble describing the extruded polygon in the scene.

Generate Camera Movement

Description

Takes a series of key frame camera positions and smoothly interpolates between them. Generates a data.frame that can be passed to 'render_animation()'.

Usage

generate_camera_motion(
  positions,
  lookats = NULL,
  apertures = 0,
  fovs = 40,
  focal_distances = NULL,
  ortho_dims = NULL,
  camera_ups = NULL,
  type = "cubic",
  frames = 30,
  closed = FALSE,
  aperture_linear = TRUE,
  fov_linear = TRUE,
  focal_linear = TRUE,
  ortho_linear = TRUE,
  constant_step = TRUE,
  curvature_adjust = "none",
  curvature_scale = 30,
  offset_lookat = 0,
  damp_motion = FALSE,
  damp_magnitude = 0.1,
  progress = TRUE
)
generate_camera_motion(
  positions,
  lookats = NULL,
  apertures = 0,
  fovs = 40,
  focal_distances = NULL,
  ortho_dims = NULL,
  camera_ups = NULL,
  type = "cubic",
  frames = 30,
  closed = FALSE,
  aperture_linear = TRUE,
  fov_linear = TRUE,
  focal_linear = TRUE,
  ortho_linear = TRUE,
  constant_step = TRUE,
  curvature_adjust = "none",
  curvature_scale = 30,
  offset_lookat = 0,
  damp_motion = FALSE,
  damp_magnitude = 0.1,
  progress = TRUE
)

Arguments

`positions`	A list or 3-column XYZ matrix of camera positions. These will serve as key frames for the camera position. Alternatively, this can also be the a dataframe of the keyframe output from an interactive rayrender session ('ray_keyframes').
`lookats`	Default 'NULL', which sets the camera lookat to the origin 'c(0,0,0)' for the animation. A list or 3-column XYZ matrix of 'lookat' points. Must be the same number of points as 'positions'.
`apertures`	Default '0'. A numeric vector of aperture values.
`fovs`	Default '40'. A numeric vector of field of view values.
`focal_distances`	Default 'NULL', automatically the distance between positions and lookats. Numeric vector of focal distances.
`ortho_dims`	Default 'NULL', which results in 'c(1,1)' orthographic dimensions. A list or 2-column matrix of orthographic dimensions.
`camera_ups`	Default 'NULL', which gives at up vector of 'c(0,1,0)'. Camera up orientation.
`type`	Default 'cubic'. Type of transition between keyframes. Other options are 'linear', 'quad', 'bezier', 'exp', and 'manual'. 'manual' just returns the values passed in, properly formatted to be passed to 'render_animation()'.
`frames`	Default '30'. Total number of frames.
`closed`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to close the camera curve so the first position matches the last. Set this to 'TRUE' for perfect loops.
`aperture_linear`	Default 'TRUE'. This linearly interpolates focal distances, rather than using a smooth Bezier curve or easing function.
`fov_linear`	Default 'TRUE'. This linearly interpolates focal distances, rather than using a smooth Bezier curve or easing function.
`focal_linear`	Default 'TRUE'. This linearly interpolates focal distances, rather than using a smooth Bezier curve or easing function.
`ortho_linear`	Default 'TRUE'. This linearly interpolates orthographic dimensions, rather than using a smooth Bezier curve or easing function.
`constant_step`	Default 'TRUE'. This will make the camera travel at a constant speed.
`curvature_adjust`	Default 'none'. Other options are 'position', 'lookat', and 'both'. Whether to slow down the camera at areas of high curvature to prevent fast swings. Only used for curve 'type = bezier'. This does not preserve key frame positions. Note: This feature will likely result in the 'lookat' and 'position' diverging if they do not have similar curvatures at each point. This feature is best used when passing the same set of points to 'positions' and 'lookats' and providing an 'offset_lookat' value, which ensures the curvature will be the same.
`curvature_scale`	Default '30'. Constant dividing factor for curvature. Higher values will subdivide the path more, potentially finding a smoother path, but increasing the calculation time. Only used for curve 'type = bezier'. Increasing this value after a certain point will not increase the quality of the path, but it is scene-dependent.
`offset_lookat`	Default '0'. Amount to offset the lookat position, either along the path (if 'constant_step = TRUE') or towards the derivative of the Bezier curve.
`damp_motion`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to damp the motion of the camera, so that quick movements are damped and don't result in shakey motion. This function tracks the current position, and linearly interpolates between that point and the next point using value 'damp_magnitude'. The equation for the position is 'cam_current = cam_current * damp_magnitude + cam_next_point * (1 - damp_magnitude)'.
`damp_magnitude`	Default '0.1'. Amount to damp the motion, a numeric value greater than '0' (no damping) and less than '1'.
`progress`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to display a progress bar.

Value

Data frame of camera positions, orientations, apertures, focal distances, and field of views

  microfacet = "tbr",
  checkercolor = NA,
  checkerperiod = 3,
  noise = 0,
  noisephase = 0,

  bump_intensity = 1,
  roughness_texture = NA_character_,
  roughness_range = c(1e-04, 0.2),
  roughness_flip = FALSE,
  importance_sample = FALSE
)

Arguments

`color`	Default 'white'. The color of the surface. Can be either a hexadecimal code, R color string, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`gloss`	Default '0.8'. Gloss of the surface, between '1' (completely glossy) and '0' (rough glossy). Can be either a single number, or two numbers indicating an anisotropic distribution of normals (as in 'microfacet()').
`reflectance`	Default '0.03'. The reflectivity of the surface. '1' is a full mirror, '0' is diffuse with a glossy highlight.
`microfacet`	Default 'tbr'. Type of microfacet distribution. Alternative option 'beckmann'.
`checkercolor`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', determines the secondary color of the checkered surface. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`checkerperiod`	Default '3'. The period of the checker pattern. Increasing this value makes the checker pattern bigger, and decreasing it makes it smaller
`noise`	Default '0'. If not '0', covers the surface in a turbulent marble pattern. This value will determine the amount of turbulence in the texture.
`noisephase`	Default '0'. The phase of the noise. The noise will repeat at '360'.
`noiseintensity`	Default '10'. Intensity of the noise.
`noisecolor`	Default '#000000'. The secondary color of the noise pattern. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`gradient_color`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', creates a secondary color for a linear gradient between the this color and color specified in 'color'. Direction is determined by 'gradient_transpose'.
`gradient_transpose`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', this will use the 'v' coordinate texture instead of the 'u' coordinate texture to map the gradient.
`gradient_point_start`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'color'.
`gradient_point_end`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'gradient_color'.
`gradient_type`	Default 'hsv'. Colorspace to calculate the gradient. Alternative 'rgb'.
`image_texture`	Default 'NA'. A 3-layer RGB array or filename to be used as the texture on the surface of the object.
`image_repeat`	Default '1'. Number of times to repeat the image across the surface. 'u' and 'v' repeat amount can be set independently if user passes in a length-2 vector.
`alpha_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify the transparency.
`bump_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix, array, or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify a bump map for the surface.
`bump_intensity`	Default '1'. Intensity of the bump map. High values may lead to unphysical results.
`roughness_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix, array, or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify a roughness map for the surface.
`roughness_range`	Default ' c(0.0001, 0.2)'. This is a length-2 vector that specifies the range of roughness values that the 'roughness_texture' can take.
`roughness_flip`	Default 'FALSE'. Setting this to 'TRUE' flips the roughness values specified in the 'roughness_texture' so high values are now low values and vice versa.
`importance_sample`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', the object will be sampled explicitly during the rendering process. If the object is particularly important in contributing to the light paths in the image (e.g. light sources, refracting glass ball with caustics, metal objects concentrating light), this will help with the convergence of the image.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the glossy material.

Light Material

Description

Light Material

Usage

light(
  color = "#ffffff",
  intensity = 10,
  importance_sample = TRUE,
  spotlight_focus = NA,
  spotlight_width = 30,
  spotlight_start_falloff = 15,
  invisible = FALSE,
  image_texture = NA_character_,
  image_repeat = 1,
  gradient_color = NA,
  gradient_transpose = FALSE,
  gradient_point_start = NA,
  gradient_point_end = NA,
  gradient_type = "hsv"
)
light(
  color = "#ffffff",
  intensity = 10,
  importance_sample = TRUE,
  spotlight_focus = NA,
  spotlight_width = 30,
  spotlight_start_falloff = 15,
  invisible = FALSE,
  image_texture = NA_character_,
  image_repeat = 1,
  gradient_color = NA,
  gradient_transpose = FALSE,
  gradient_point_start = NA,
  gradient_point_end = NA,
  gradient_type = "hsv"
)

Arguments

`color`	Default 'white'. The color of the light Can be either a hexadecimal code, R color string, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`intensity`	Default '10'. If a positive value, this will turn this object into a light emitting the value specified in 'color' (ignoring other properties). Higher values will produce a brighter light.
`importance_sample`	Default 'TRUE'. Keeping this on for lights improves the convergence of the rendering algorithm, in most cases. If the object is particularly important in contributing to the light paths in the image (e.g. light sources, refracting glass ball with caustics, metal objects concentrating light), this will help with the convergence of the image.
`spotlight_focus`	Default 'NA', no spotlight. Otherwise, a length-3 numeric vector specifying the x/y/z coordinates that the spotlight should be focused on. Only works for spheres and rectangles.
`spotlight_width`	Default '30'. Angular width of the spotlight.
`spotlight_start_falloff`	Default '15'. Angle at which the light starts fading in intensity.
`invisible`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', the light itself will be invisible.
`image_texture`	Default 'NA'. A 3-layer RGB array or filename to be used as the texture on the surface of the object.
`image_repeat`	Default '1'. Number of times to repeat the image across the surface. 'u' and 'v' repeat amount can be set independently if user passes in a length-2 vector.
`gradient_color`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', creates a secondary color for a linear gradient between the this color and color specified in 'color'. Direction is determined by 'gradient_transpose'.
`gradient_transpose`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', this will use the 'v' coordinate texture instead of the 'u' coordinate texture to map the gradient.
`gradient_point_start`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'color'.
`gradient_point_end`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'gradient_color'.
`gradient_type`	Default 'hsv'. Colorspace to calculate the gradient. Alternative 'rgb'.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the light material.

)

Arguments

`mesh`	A 'mesh3d' or 'shapelist3d' object. Pulls the vertex, index, texture coordinates, normals, and material information. If the material references an image texture, the 'mesh$material$texture' argument should be set to the image filename. The 'mesh3d' format only supports one image texture per mesh. All quads will be triangulated.
`x`	Default '0'. x-coordinate to offset the model.
`y`	Default '0'. y-coordinate to offset the model.
`z`	Default '0'. z-coordinate to offset the model.
`swap_yz`	Default 'FALSE'. Swap the Y and Z coordinates.
`reverse`	Default 'FALSE'. Reverse the orientation of the indices, flipping their normals.
`subdivision_levels`	Default '1'. Number of Loop subdivisions to be applied to the mesh.
`verbose`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', prints information about the mesh to the console.
`displacement_texture`	Default 'NA'. File path to the displacement texture. This texture is used to displace the vertices of the mesh based on the texture's pixel values.
`displacement_intensity`	Default '1'. Intensity of the displacement effect. Higher values result in greater displacement.
`displacement_vector`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to use vector displacement. If 'TRUE', the displacement texture is interpreted as providing a 3D displacement vector. Otherwise, the texture is interpreted as providing a scalar displacement.
`recalculate_normals`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to recalculate vertex normals based on the connecting face orientations. This can be used to compute normals for meshes lacking them or to calculate new normals after a displacement map has been applied to the mesh.
`override_material`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', overrides the material specified in the 'mesh3d' object with the one specified in 'material'.
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`angle`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Angle of rotation around the x, y, and z axes, applied in the order specified in 'order_rotation'.
`order_rotation`	Default 'c(1, 2, 3)'. The order to apply the rotations, referring to "x", "y", and "z".
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Note: emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the mesh3d model in the scene.

Examples

#Load a mesh3d object (from the Rvcg) and render it:
if(length(find.package("Rcvg", quiet=TRUE)) > 0) {

Arguments

`color`	Default 'white'. The color of the sphere. Can be either a hexadecimal code, R color string, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`eta`	Default '0'. Wavelength dependent refractivity of the material (red, green, and blue channels). If single number, will be repeated across all three channels.
`kappa`	Default '0'. Wavelength dependent absorption of the material (red, green, and blue channels). If single number, will be repeated across all three channels.
`fuzz`	Default '0'. Deprecated–Use the microfacet material instead, as it is designed for rough metals. The roughness of the metallic surface. Maximum '1'.
`checkercolor`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', determines the secondary color of the checkered surface. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`checkerperiod`	Default '3'. The period of the checker pattern. Increasing this value makes the checker pattern bigger, and decreasing it makes it smaller
`noise`	Default '0'. If not '0', covers the surface in a turbulent marble pattern. This value will determine the amount of turbulence in the texture.
`noisephase`	Default '0'. The phase of the noise. The noise will repeat at '360'.
`noiseintensity`	Default '10'. Intensity of the noise.
`noisecolor`	Default '#000000'. The secondary color of the noise pattern. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`gradient_color`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', creates a secondary color for a linear gradient between the this color and color specified in 'color'. Direction is determined by 'gradient_transpose'.
`gradient_transpose`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', this will use the 'v' coordinate texture instead of the 'u' coordinate texture to map the gradient.
`gradient_point_start`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'color'.
`gradient_point_end`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'gradient_color'.
`gradient_type`	Default 'hsv'. Colorspace to calculate the gradient. Alternative 'rgb'.
`image_texture`	Default 'NA'. A 3-layer RGB array or filename to be used as the texture on the surface of the object.
`image_repeat`	Default '1'. Number of times to repeat the image across the surface. 'u' and 'v' repeat amount can be set independently if user passes in a length-2 vector.
`alpha_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify the transparency.
`bump_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix, array, or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify a bump map for the surface.
`bump_intensity`	Default '1'. Intensity of the bump map. High values may lead to unphysical results.
`importance_sample`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', the object will be sampled explicitly during the rendering process. If the object is particularly important in contributing to the light paths in the image (e.g. light sources, refracting glass ball with caustics, metal objects concentrating light), this will help with the convergence of the image.

Value

)

Arguments

`color`	Default 'white'. The color of the surface. Can be either a hexadecimal code, R color string, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`roughness`	Default '0.0001'. Roughness of the surface, between '0' (smooth) and '1' (diffuse). Can be either a single number, or two numbers indicating an anisotropic distribution of normals. '0' is a smooth surface, while '1' is extremely rough. This can be used to create a wide-variety of materials (e.g. '0-0.01' is specular metal, '0.02'-'0.1' is brushed metal, '0.1'-'0.3' is a rough metallic surface , '0.3'-'0.5' is diffuse, and above that is a rough satin-like material). Two numbers will specify the x and y roughness separately (e.g. 'roughness = c(0.01, 0.001)' gives an etched metal effect). If '0', this defaults to the 'metal()' material for faster evaluation.
`transmission`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', this material will be a rough dielectric instead of a rough metallic surface.
`eta`	Default '0'. Wavelength dependent refractivity of the material (red, green, and blue channels). If single number, will be repeated across all three channels. If 'transmission = TRUE', this is a single value representing the index of refraction of the material.
`kappa`	Default '0'. Wavelength dependent absorption of the material (red, green, and blue channels). If single number, will be repeated across all three channels. If 'transmission = TRUE', this length-3 vector specifies the attenuation of the dielectric (analogous to the dielectric 'attenuation' argument).
`microfacet`	Default 'tbr'. Type of microfacet distribution. Alternative option 'beckmann'.
`checkercolor`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', determines the secondary color of the checkered surface. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`checkerperiod`	Default '3'. The period of the checker pattern. Increasing this value makes the checker pattern bigger, and decreasing it makes it smaller
`noise`	Default '0'. If not '0', covers the surface in a turbulent marble pattern. This value will determine the amount of turbulence in the texture.
`noisephase`	Default '0'. The phase of the noise. The noise will repeat at '360'.
`noiseintensity`	Default '10'. Intensity of the noise.
`noisecolor`	Default '#000000'. The secondary color of the noise pattern. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`gradient_color`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', creates a secondary color for a linear gradient between the this color and color specified in 'color'. Direction is determined by 'gradient_transpose'.
`gradient_transpose`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', this will use the 'v' coordinate texture instead of the 'u' coordinate texture to map the gradient.
`gradient_point_start`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'color'.
`gradient_point_end`	Default 'NA'. If not 'NA', this changes the behavior from mapping texture coordinates to mapping to world space coordinates. This should be a length-3 vector specifying the x,y, and z points where the gradient begins with value 'gradient_color'.
`gradient_type`	Default 'hsv'. Colorspace to calculate the gradient. Alternative 'rgb'.
`image_texture`	Default 'NA'. A 3-layer RGB array or filename to be used as the texture on the surface of the object.
`image_repeat`	Default '1'. Number of times to repeat the image across the surface. 'u' and 'v' repeat amount can be set independently if user passes in a length-2 vector.
`alpha_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify the transparency.
`bump_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix, array, or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify a bump map for the surface.
`bump_intensity`	Default '1'. Intensity of the bump map. High values may lead to unphysical results.
`roughness_texture`	Default 'NA'. A matrix, array, or filename (specifying a greyscale image) to be used to specify a roughness map for the surface.
`roughness_range`	Default ' c(0.0001, 0.2)'. This is a length-2 vector that specifies the range of roughness values that the 'roughness_texture' can take.
`roughness_flip`	Default 'FALSE'. Setting this to 'TRUE' flips the roughness values specified in the 'roughness_texture' so high values are now low values and vice versa.
`importance_sample`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', the object will be sampled explicitly during the rendering process. If the object is particularly important in contributing to the light paths in the image (e.g. light sources, refracting glass ball with caustics, metal objects concentrating light), this will help with the convergence of the image.

'obj' File Object

Description

Load an obj file via a filepath. Currently only supports the diffuse texture with the 'texture' argument. Note: light importance sampling currently not supported for this shape.

Usage

obj_model(
  filename,
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  z = 0,
  scale_obj = 1,
  load_material = TRUE,
  load_textures = TRUE,
  load_normals = TRUE,
  vertex_colors = FALSE,
  calculate_consistent_normals = TRUE,
  subdivision_levels = 1,
  displacement_texture = NA,
  displacement_intensity = 1,
  displacement_vector = FALSE,
  recalculate_normals = FALSE,
  importance_sample_lights = TRUE,
  material = diffuse(),
  angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)
obj_model(
  filename,
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  z = 0,
  scale_obj = 1,
  load_material = TRUE,
  load_textures = TRUE,
  load_normals = TRUE,
  vertex_colors = FALSE,
  calculate_consistent_normals = TRUE,
  subdivision_levels = 1,
  displacement_texture = NA,
  displacement_intensity = 1,
  displacement_vector = FALSE,
  recalculate_normals = FALSE,
  importance_sample_lights = TRUE,
  material = diffuse(),
  angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)

Arguments

`filename`	Filename and path to the ‘obj' file. Can also be a 'txt' file, if it’s in the correct 'obj' internally.
`x`	Default '0'. x-coordinate to offset the model.
`y`	Default '0'. y-coordinate to offset the model.
`z`	Default '0'. z-coordinate to offset the model.
`scale_obj`	Default '1'. Amount to scale the model. Use this to scale the object up or down on all axes, as it is more robust to numerical precision errors than the generic scale option.
`load_material`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to load the obj file material (MTL file). If material for faces aren't specified, the default material will be used (specified by the user in 'material').
`load_textures`	Default 'TRUE'. If 'load_material = TRUE', whether to load textures in the MTL file (versus just using the colors specified for each material).
`load_normals`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to load the vertex normals if they exist in the OBJ file.
`vertex_colors`	Default 'FALSE'. Set to 'TRUE' if the OBJ file has vertex colors to apply them to the model.
`calculate_consistent_normals`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to calculate consistent vertex normals to prevent energy loss at edges.
`subdivision_levels`	Default '1'. Number of Loop subdivisions to be applied to the mesh.
`displacement_texture`	Default 'NA'. File path to the displacement texture. This texture is used to displace the vertices of the mesh based on the texture's pixel values.
`displacement_intensity`	Default '1'. Intensity of the displacement effect. Higher values result in greater displacement.
`displacement_vector`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to use vector displacement. If 'TRUE', the displacement texture is interpreted as providing a 3D displacement vector. Otherwise, the texture is interpreted as providing a scalar displacement.
`recalculate_normals`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to recalculate vertex normals based on the connecting face orientations. This can be used to compute normals for meshes lacking them or to calculate new normals after a displacement map has been applied to the mesh.
`importance_sample_lights`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to importance sample lights specified in the OBJ material (objects with a non-zero Ke MTL material).
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`angle`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Angle of rotation around the x, y, and z axes, applied in the order specified in 'order_rotation'.
`order_rotation`	Default 'c(1, 2, 3)'. The order to apply the rotations, referring to "x", "y", and "z".
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Note: emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the obj model in the scene.

  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)

Arguments

`filename`	Filename and path to the ‘ply' file. Can also be a 'txt' file, if it’s in the correct 'ply' internally.

`subdivision_levels`	Default '1'. Number of Loop subdivisions to be applied to the mesh.
`recalculate_normals`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to recalculate vertex normals based on the connecting face orientations. This can be used to compute normals for meshes lacking them or to calculate new normals after a displacement map has been applied to the mesh.
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`angle`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Angle of rotation around the x, y, and z axes, applied in the order specified in 'order_rotation'.
`order_rotation`	Default 'c(1, 2, 3)'. The order to apply the rotations, referring to "x", "y", and "z".
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Note: emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the obj model in the scene.

Examples

#See the documentation for `obj_model()`--no example PLY models are included with this package,
#but the process of loading a model is the same (without support for vertex colors).

  angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1),
  validate_mesh = TRUE
)

Arguments

`mesh`	A 'raymesh' object. Pulls the vertex, index, texture coordinates, normals, and material information.
`x`	Default '0'. x-coordinate to offset the model.
`y`	Default '0'. y-coordinate to offset the model.
`z`	Default '0'. z-coordinate to offset the model.
`flip_transmittance`	Default 'TRUE'. Flips '(1-t)' the transmittance values to match the way the colors would be interpreted in a rasterizer (where it specifies the transmitted color). Turn off to specify the attenuation values directly.
`verbose`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', prints information about the mesh to the console.
`importance_sample_lights`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to importance sample lights specified in the OBJ material (objects with a non-zero Ke MTL material).
`calculate_consistent_normals`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to calculate consistent vertex normals to prevent energy loss at edges.
`subdivision_levels`	Default '1'. Number of Loop subdivisions to be applied to the mesh.
`displacement_texture`	Default 'NA'. File path to the displacement texture. This texture is used to displace the vertices of the mesh based on the texture's pixel values.
`displacement_intensity`	Default '1'. Intensity of the displacement effect. Higher values result in greater displacement.
`displacement_vector`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to use vector displacement. If 'TRUE', the displacement texture is interpreted as providing a 3D displacement vector. Otherwise, the texture is interpreted as providing a scalar displacement.
`recalculate_normals`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to recalculate vertex normals based on the connecting face orientations. This can be used to compute normals for meshes lacking them or to calculate new normals after a displacement map has been applied to the mesh.
`override_material`	Default 'TRUE'. If 'TRUE', overrides the material specified in the 'raymesh' object with the one specified in 'material'.
`material`	Default `diffuse`, but ignored unless 'override_material = TRUE'. The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`angle`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Angle of rotation around the x, y, and z axes, applied in the order specified in 'order_rotation'.
`order_rotation`	Default 'c(1, 2, 3)'. The order to apply the rotations, referring to "x", "y", and "z".
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Note: emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.
`validate_mesh`	Default 'TRUE'. Validates the 'raymesh' object using 'rayvertex::validate_mesh()' before parsing to ensure correct parsing. Set to 'FALSE' to speed up scene construction if 'raymesh_model()' is taking a long time (Note: this does not affect rendering time).

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the raymesh model in the scene.

Arguments

`scene`	Tibble of object locations and properties.
`camera_motion`	Data frame of camera motion vectors, calculated with 'generate_camera_motion()'.
`start_frame`	Default '1'. Frame to start the animation.
`end_frame`	Default 'NA'. By default, this is set to 'nrow(camera_motion)', the full number of frames.
`width`	Default '400'. Width of the render, in pixels.
`height`	Default '400'. Height of the render, in pixels.
`preview`	Default 'interactive()'. Whether to display a realtime progressive preview of the render. Press ESC to cancel the render.
`camera_description_file`	Default 'NA'. Filename of a camera description file for rendering with a realistic camera. Several camera files are built-in: '"50mm"','"wide"','"fisheye"', and '"telephoto"'.
`camera_scale`	Default '1'. Amount to scale the camera up or down in size. Use this rather than scaling a scene.
`iso`	Default '100'. Camera exposure.
`film_size`	Default '22', in 'mm' (scene units in 'm'. Size of the film if using a realistic camera, otherwise ignored.
`samples`	Default '100'. The maximum number of samples for each pixel. If this is a length-2 vector and the 'sample_method' is 'stratified', this will control the number of strata in each dimension. The total number of samples in this case will be the product of the two numbers.
`min_variance`	Default '0.00005'. Minimum acceptable variance for a block of pixels for the adaptive sampler. Smaller numbers give higher quality images, at the expense of longer rendering times. If this is set to zero, the adaptive sampler will be turned off and the renderer will use the maximum number of samples everywhere.
`min_adaptive_size`	Default '8'. Width of the minimum block size in the adaptive sampler.
`sample_method`	Default 'sobol'. The type of sampling method used to generate random numbers. The other options are 'random' (worst quality but simple), 'stratified' (only implemented for completion), and 'sobol_blue' (best option for sample counts below 256).
`ambient_occlusion`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', the animation will be rendered with the ambient occlusion renderer. This uses the background color specified in 'backgroundhigh'
`keep_colors`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to keep the diffuse material colors.
`sample_dist`	Default '10'. Sample distance if 'debug_channel = "ao"'.
`max_depth`	Default '50'. Maximum number of bounces a ray can make in a scene.
`roulette_active_depth`	Default '10'. Number of ray bounces until a ray can stop bouncing via Russian roulette.
`ambient_light`	Default 'FALSE', unless there are no emitting objects in the scene. If 'TRUE', the background will be a gradient varying from 'backgroundhigh' directly up (+y) to 'backgroundlow' directly down (-y).
`clamp_value`	Default 'Inf'. If a bright light or a reflective material is in the scene, occasionally there will be bright spots that will not go away even with a large number of samples. These can be removed (at the cost of slightly darkening the image) by setting this to a small number greater than 1.
`filename`	Default 'NULL'. If present, the renderer will write to the filename instead of the current device.
`backgroundhigh`	Default '#ffffff'. The "high" color in the background gradient. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`backgroundlow`	Default '#ffffff'. The "low" color in the background gradient. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`shutteropen`	Default '0'. Time at which the shutter is open. Only affects moving objects.
`shutterclose`	Default '1'. Time at which the shutter is open. Only affects moving objects.
`focal_distance`	Default 'NULL', automatically set to the 'lookfrom-lookat' distance unless otherwise specified.
`ortho_dimensions`	Default 'c(1,1)'. Width and height of the orthographic camera. Will only be used if 'fov = 0'.
`tonemap`	Default 'gamma'. Choose the tone mapping function, Default 'gamma' solely adjusts for gamma and clamps values greater than 1 to 1. 'reinhold' scales values by their individual color channels 'color/(1+color)' and then performs the gamma adjustment. 'uncharted' uses the mapping developed for Uncharted 2 by John Hable. 'hbd' uses an optimized formula by Jim Hejl and Richard Burgess-Dawson. Note: If set to anything other than 'gamma', objects with material 'light()' may not be anti-aliased. If 'raw', the raw array of HDR values will be returned, rather than an image or a plot.
`bloom`	Default 'TRUE'. Set to 'FALSE' to get the raw, pathtraced image. Otherwise, this performs a convolution of the HDR image of the scene with a sharp, long-tailed exponential kernel, which does not visibly affect dimly pixels, but does result in emitters light slightly bleeding into adjacent pixels. This provides an antialiasing effect for lights, even when tonemapping the image. Pass in a matrix to specify the convolution kernel manually, or a positive number to control the intensity of the bloom (higher number = more bloom).
`parallel`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', it will use all available cores to render the image (or the number specified in 'options("cores")' if that option is not 'NULL').
`bvh_type`	Default '"sah"', "surface area heuristic". Method of building the bounding volume hierarchy structure used when rendering. Other option is "equal", which splits tree into groups of equal size.
`environment_light`	Default 'NULL'. An image to be used for the background for rays that escape the scene. Supports both HDR ('.hdr') and low-dynamic range ('.png', '.jpg') images.
`rotate_env`	Default '0'. The number of degrees to rotate the environment map around the scene.
`intensity_env`	Default '1'. The amount to increase the intensity of the environment lighting. Useful if using a LDR (JPEG or PNG) image as an environment map.
`debug_channel`	Default 'none'. If 'depth', function will return a depth map of rays into the scene instead of an image. If 'normals', function will return an image of scene normals, mapped from 0 to 1. If 'uv', function will return an image of the uv coords. If 'variance', function will return an image showing the number of samples needed to take for each block to converge. If 'dpdu' or 'dpdv', function will return an image showing the differential 'u' and 'u' coordinates. If 'color', function will return the raw albedo values (with white for 'metal' and 'dielectric' materials). If 'preview', an image rendered with 'render_preview()' will be returned. Can set to 'ao' to render an animation with the ambient occlusion renderer.
`return_raw_array`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', function will return raw array with RGB intensity information.
`progress`	Default 'TRUE' if interactive session, 'FALSE' otherwise.
`verbose`	Default 'FALSE'. Prints information and timing information about scene construction and raytracing progress.
`transparent_background`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', any initial camera rays that escape the scene will be marked as transparent in the final image. If for a pixel some rays escape and others hit a surface, those pixels will be partially transparent.
`preview_light_direction`	Default 'c(0,-1,0)'. Vector specifying the orientation for the global light using for phong shading.
`preview_exponent`	Default '6'. Phong exponent.

Value

Raytraced plot to current device, or an image saved to a file.

Arguments

`scene`	Tibble of object locations and properties.
`width`	Default '400'. Width of the render, in pixels.
`height`	Default '400'. Height of the render, in pixels.
`fov`	Default '20'. Field of view, in degrees. If this is '0', the camera will use an orthographic projection. The size of the plane used to create the orthographic projection is given in argument 'ortho_dimensions'. From '0' to '180', this uses a perspective projections. If this value is '360', a 360 degree environment image will be rendered.
`sample_dist`	Default '10'. Ambient occlusion sampling distance.
`keep_colors`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to keep the diffuse material colors.
`samples`	Default '100'. The maximum number of samples for each pixel. If this is a length-2 vector and the 'sample_method' is 'stratified', this will control the number of strata in each dimension. The total number of samples in this case will be the product of the two numbers.
`camera_description_file`	Default 'NA'. Filename of a camera description file for rendering with a realistic camera. Several camera files are built-in: '"50mm"','"wide"','"fisheye"', and '"telephoto"'.
`camera_scale`	Default '1'. Amount to scale the camera up or down in size. Use this rather than scaling a scene.
`iso`	Default '100'. Camera exposure.
`film_size`	Default '22', in 'mm' (scene units in 'm'. Size of the film if using a realistic camera, otherwise ignored.
`min_variance`	Default '0.00005'. Minimum acceptable variance for a block of pixels for the adaptive sampler. Smaller numbers give higher quality images, at the expense of longer rendering times. If this is set to zero, the adaptive sampler will be turned off and the renderer will use the maximum number of samples everywhere.
`min_adaptive_size`	Default '8'. Width of the minimum block size in the adaptive sampler.
`sample_method`	Default 'sobol'. The type of sampling method used to generate random numbers. The other options are 'random' (worst quality but fastest), 'stratified' (only implemented for completion), 'sobol_blue' (best option for sample counts below 256), and 'sobol' (slowest but best quality, better than 'sobol_blue' for sample counts greater than 256).
`background_color`	Default '"white"'. Background color.
`lookfrom`	Default 'c(0,1,10)'. Location of the camera.
`lookat`	Default 'c(0,0,0)'. Location where the camera is pointed.
`camera_up`	Default 'c(0,1,0)'. Vector indicating the "up" position of the camera.
`aperture`	Default '0.1'. Aperture of the camera. Smaller numbers will increase depth of field, causing less blurring in areas not in focus.
`clamp_value`	Default 'Inf'. If a bright light or a reflective material is in the scene, occasionally there will be bright spots that will not go away even with a large number of samples. These can be removed (at the cost of slightly darkening the image) by setting this to a small number greater than 1.
`filename`	Default 'NULL'. If present, the renderer will write to the filename instead of the current device.
`shutteropen`	Default '0'. Time at which the shutter is open. Only affects moving objects.
`shutterclose`	Default '1'. Time at which the shutter is open. Only affects moving objects.
`focal_distance`	Default 'NULL', automatically set to the 'lookfrom-lookat' distance unless otherwise specified.
`ortho_dimensions`	Default 'c(1,1)'. Width and height of the orthographic camera. Will only be used if 'fov = 0'.
`parallel`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', it will use all available cores to render the image (or the number specified in 'options("cores")' if that option is not 'NULL').
`bvh_type`	Default '"sah"', "surface area heuristic". Method of building the bounding volume hierarchy structure used when rendering. Other option is "equal", which splits tree into groups of equal size.
`progress`	Default 'TRUE' if interactive session, 'FALSE' otherwise.
`verbose`	Default 'FALSE'. Prints information and timing information about scene construction and raytracing progress.

Value

Raytraced plot to current device, or an image saved to a file. Invisibly returns the array (containing either debug data or the RGB)

Arguments

`scene`	Tibble of object locations and properties.
`width`	Default '400'. Width of the render, in pixels.
`height`	Default '400'. Height of the render, in pixels.
`fov`	Default '20'. Field of view, in degrees. If this is '0', the camera will use an orthographic projection. The size of the plane used to create the orthographic projection is given in argument 'ortho_dimensions'. From '0' to '180', this uses a perspective projections. If this value is '360', a 360 degree environment image will be rendered.
`samples`	Default '100'. The maximum number of samples for each pixel. If this is a length-2 vector and the 'sample_method' is 'stratified', this will control the number of strata in each dimension. The total number of samples in this case will be the product of the two numbers.
`camera_description_file`	Default 'NA'. Filename of a camera description file for rendering with a realistic camera. Several camera files are built-in: '"50mm"','"wide"','"fisheye"', and '"telephoto"'.
`preview`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to display a real-time progressive preview of the render. Press ESC to cancel the render.
`interactive`	Default 'interactive()'. Whether the scene preview should be interactive. Camera movement orbits around the lookat point (unless the mode is switched to free flying), with the following control mapping: W = Forward, S = Backward, A = Left, D = Right, Q = Up, Z = Down, E = 2x Step Distance (max 128), C = 0.5x Step Distance, Up Key = Zoom In (decrease FOV), Down Key = Zoom Out (increase FOV), Left Key = Decrease Aperture, Right Key = Increase Aperture, 1 = Decrease Focal Distance, 2 = Increase Focal Distance, 3/4 = Rotate Environment Light, R = Reset Camera, TAB: Toggle Orbit Mode, Left Mouse Click: Change Look Direction, Right Mouse Click: Change Look At K: Save Keyframe (at the conclusion of the render, this will create the 'ray_keyframes' data.frame in the global environment, which can be passed to 'generate_camera_motion()' to tween between those saved positions. L: Reset Camera to Last Keyframe (if set) F: Toggle Fast Travel Mode Initial step size is 1/20th of the distance from 'lookat' to 'lookfrom'. Note: Clicking on the environment image will only redirect the view direction, not change the orbit point. Some options aren't available all cameras. When using a realistic camera, the aperture and field of view cannot be changed from their initial settings. Additionally, clicking to direct the camera at the background environment image while using a realistic camera will not always point to the exact position selected.
`camera_scale`	Default '1'. Amount to scale the camera up or down in size. Use this rather than scaling a scene.
`iso`	Default '100'. Camera exposure.
`film_size`	Default '22', in 'mm' (scene units in 'm'. Size of the film if using a realistic camera, otherwise ignored.
`min_variance`	Default '0.00005'. Minimum acceptable variance for a block of pixels for the adaptive sampler. Smaller numbers give higher quality images, at the expense of longer rendering times. If this is set to zero, the adaptive sampler will be turned off and the renderer will use the maximum number of samples everywhere.
`min_adaptive_size`	Default '8'. Width of the minimum block size in the adaptive sampler.
`sample_method`	Default 'sobol'. The type of sampling method used to generate random numbers. The other options are 'random' (worst quality but fastest), 'stratified' (only implemented for completion), 'sobol_blue' (best option for sample counts below 256), and 'sobol' (slowest but best quality, better than 'sobol_blue' for sample counts greater than 256). If 'samples > 256' and 'sobol_blue' is selected, the method will automatically switch to 'sample_method = "sobol"'.
`max_depth`	Default 'NA', automatically sets to 50. Maximum number of bounces a ray can make in a scene. Alternatively, if a debugging option is chosen, this sets the bounce to query the debugging parameter (only for some options).
`roulette_active_depth`	Default '100'. Number of ray bounces until a ray can stop bouncing via Russian roulette.
`ambient_light`	Default 'FALSE', unless there are no emitting objects in the scene. If 'TRUE', the background will be a gradient varying from 'backgroundhigh' directly up (+y) to 'backgroundlow' directly down (-y).
`lookfrom`	Default 'c(0,1,10)'. Location of the camera.
`lookat`	Default 'c(0,0,0)'. Location where the camera is pointed.
`camera_up`	Default 'c(0,1,0)'. Vector indicating the "up" position of the camera.
`aperture`	Default '0.1'. Aperture of the camera. Smaller numbers will increase depth of field, causing less blurring in areas not in focus.
`clamp_value`	Default 'Inf'. If a bright light or a reflective material is in the scene, occasionally there will be bright spots that will not go away even with a large number of samples. These can be removed (at the cost of slightly darkening the image) by setting this to a small number greater than 1.
`filename`	Default 'NULL'. If present, the renderer will write to the filename instead of the current device.
`backgroundhigh`	Default '#80b4ff'. The "high" color in the background gradient. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`backgroundlow`	Default '#ffffff'. The "low" color in the background gradient. Can be either a hexadecimal code, or a numeric rgb vector listing three intensities between '0' and '1'.
`shutteropen`	Default '0'. Time at which the shutter is open. Only affects moving objects.
`shutterclose`	Default '1'. Time at which the shutter is open. Only affects moving objects.
`focal_distance`	Default 'NULL', automatically set to the 'lookfrom-lookat' distance unless otherwise specified.
`ortho_dimensions`	Default 'c(1,1)'. Width and height of the orthographic camera. Will only be used if 'fov = 0'.
`tonemap`	Default 'gamma'. Choose the tone mapping function, Default 'gamma' solely adjusts for gamma and clamps values greater than 1 to 1. 'reinhold' scales values by their individual color channels 'color/(1+color)' and then performs the gamma adjustment. 'uncharted' uses the mapping developed for Uncharted 2 by John Hable. 'hbd' uses an optimized formula by Jim Hejl and Richard Burgess-Dawson. If 'raw', the raw array of HDR values will be returned, rather than an image or a plot.
`bloom`	Default 'TRUE'. Set to 'FALSE' to get the raw, pathtraced image. Otherwise, this performs a convolution of the HDR image of the scene with a sharp, long-tailed exponential kernel, which does not visibly affect dimly pixels, but does result in emitters light slightly bleeding into adjacent pixels. This provides an antialiasing effect for lights, even when tonemapping the image. Pass in a matrix to specify the convolution kernel manually, or a positive number to control the intensity of the bloom (higher number = more bloom).
`parallel`	Default 'TRUE'. If 'FALSE', it will use all available cores to render the image (or the number specified in 'options("cores")' or 'options("Ncpus")' if that option is not 'NULL').
`bvh_type`	Default '"sah"', "surface area heuristic". Method of building the bounding volume hierarchy structure used when rendering. Other option is "equal", which splits tree into groups of equal size.
`environment_light`	Default 'NULL'. An image to be used for the background for rays that escape the scene. Supports both HDR ('.hdr') and low-dynamic range ('.png', '.jpg') images.
`rotate_env`	Default '0'. The number of degrees to rotate the environment map around the scene.
`intensity_env`	Default '1'. The amount to increase the intensity of the environment lighting. Useful if using a LDR (JPEG or PNG) image as an environment map.
`transparent_background`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', any initial camera rays that escape the scene will be marked as transparent in the final image. If for a pixel some rays escape and others hit a surface, those pixels will be partially transparent.
`debug_channel`	Default 'none'. If 'depth', function will return a depth map of rays into the scene instead of an image. If 'normals', function will return an image of scene normals, mapped from 0 to 1. If 'uv', function will return an image of the uv coords. If 'variance', function will return an image showing the number of samples needed to take for each block to converge. If 'dpdu' or 'dpdv', function will return an image showing the differential 'u' and 'u' coordinates. If 'color', function will return the raw albedo values (with white for 'metal' and 'dielectric' materials).
`return_raw_array`	Default 'FALSE'. If 'TRUE', function will return raw array with RGB intensity information.
`progress`	Default 'TRUE' if interactive session, 'FALSE' otherwise.
`verbose`	Default 'FALSE'. Prints information and timing information about scene construction and raytracing progress.
`new_page`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to call 'grid::grid.newpage()' when plotting the image (if no filename specified). Set to 'FALSE' for faster plotting (does not affect render time).

Value

A pathtraced image to the current device, or an image saved to a file. Invisibly returns the array (containing either debug data or the RGB).

Segment Object

Description

Similar to the cylinder object, but specified by start and end points.

Usage

segment(
  start = c(0, -1, 0),
  end = c(0, 1, 0),
  radius = 0.1,
  phi_min = 0,
  phi_max = 360,
  from_center = TRUE,
  direction = NA,
  material = diffuse(),
  capped = TRUE,
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)
segment(
  start = c(0, -1, 0),
  end = c(0, 1, 0),
  radius = 0.1,
  phi_min = 0,
  phi_max = 360,
  from_center = TRUE,
  direction = NA,
  material = diffuse(),
  capped = TRUE,
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)

Arguments

`start`	Default 'c(0, -1, 0)'. Start point of the cylinder segment, specifing 'x', 'y', 'z'.
`end`	Default 'c(0, 1, 0)'. End point of the cylinder segment, specifing 'x', 'y', 'z'.
`radius`	Default '1'. Radius of the segment.
`phi_min`	Default '0'. Minimum angle around the segment.
`phi_max`	Default '360'. Maximum angle around the segment.
`from_center`	Default 'TRUE'. If orientation specified via 'direction', setting this argument to 'FALSE' will make 'start' specify the bottom of the segment, instead of the middle.
`direction`	Default 'NA'. Alternative to 'start' and 'end', specify the direction (via a length-3 vector) of the segment. Segment will be centered at 'start', and the length will be determined by the magnitude of the direction vector.
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`capped`	Default 'TRUE'. Whether to add caps to the segment. Turned off when using the 'light()' material.
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Notes: this will change the stated start/end position of the segment. Emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the segment in the scene.

`n2`	Default 'NA'. Length-3 vector indicating the normal vector associated with the second triangle vertex.
`n3`	Default 'NA'. Length-3 vector indicating the normal vector associated with the third triangle vertex.
`color1`	Default 'NA'. Length-3 vector or string indicating the color associated with the first triangle vertex. If NA but other vertices specified, color inherits from material.
`color2`	Default 'NA'. Length-3 vector or string indicating the color associated with the second triangle vertex. If NA but other vertices specified, color inherits from material.
`color3`	Default 'NA'. Length-3 vector or string indicating the color associated with the third triangle vertex. If NA but other vertices specified, color inherits from material.
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.

Rectangular YZ Plane Object

Description

Rectangular YZ Plane Object

Usage

yz_rect(
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  z = 0,
  ywidth = 1,
  zwidth = 1,
  material = diffuse(),
  angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)
yz_rect(
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  z = 0,
  ywidth = 1,
  zwidth = 1,
  material = diffuse(),
  angle = c(0, 0, 0),
  order_rotation = c(1, 2, 3),
  flipped = FALSE,
  scale = c(1, 1, 1)
)

Arguments

`x`	Default '0'. x-coordinate of the center of the rectangle.
`y`	Default '0'. y-coordinate of the center of the rectangle.
`z`	Default '0'. z-coordinate of the center of the rectangle.
`ywidth`	Default '1'. y-width of the rectangle.
`zwidth`	Default '1'. z-width of the rectangle.
`material`	Default `diffuse`.The material, called from one of the material functions `diffuse`, `metal`, or `dielectric`.
`angle`	Default 'c(0, 0, 0)'. Angle of rotation around the x, y, and z axes, applied in the order specified in 'order_rotation'.
`order_rotation`	Default 'c(1, 2, 3)'. The order to apply the rotations, referring to "x", "y", and "z".
`flipped`	Default 'FALSE'. Whether to flip the normals.
`scale`	Default 'c(1, 1, 1)'. Scale transformation in the x, y, and z directions. If this is a single value, number, the object will be scaled uniformly. Note: emissive objects may not currently function correctly when scaled.

Value

Single row of a tibble describing the YZ plane in the scene.
