constructor

  • new Ray(origin?: Cartesian3, direction?: Cartesian3): Ray

  • Parameters

    • Optional origin: Cartesian3
    • Optional direction: Cartesian3

    Returns Ray

Properties

direction

direction: Cartesian3

The direction of the ray.

origin

origin: Cartesian3

The origin of the ray.

Methods

Static clone

  • clone(ray: Ray, result?: Ray): Ray

  • Duplicates a Ray instance.

    Parameters

    • ray: Ray

      The ray to duplicate.

    • Optional result: Ray

    Returns Ray

    The modified result parameter or a new Ray instance if one was not provided. (Returns undefined if ray is undefined)

Static getIntersectWidthPlane

  • getIntersectWidthPlane(ray: Ray, plane: Plane): undefined | Cartesian3

  • Parameters

    • ray: Ray
    • plane: Plane

    Returns undefined | Cartesian3

Static getIntersectWidthPlaneNormalAndPosition

  • getIntersectWidthPlaneNormalAndPosition(ray: Ray, planeNormal: Cartesian3, planePosition: Cartesian3): undefined | Cartesian3

  • Parameters

    • ray: Ray
    • planeNormal: Cartesian3
    • planePosition: Cartesian3

    Returns undefined | Cartesian3

Static getPoint

  • getPoint(ray: Ray, t: number, result?: Cartesian3): Cartesian3

  • Computes the point along the ray given by r(t) = o + t*d, where o is the origin of the ray and d is the direction.

    example

    //Get the first intersection point of a ray and an ellipsoid. var intersection = Cesium.IntersectionTests.rayEllipsoid(ray, ellipsoid); var point = Cesium.Ray.getPoint(ray, intersection.start);

    Parameters

    • ray: Ray

      The ray.

    • t: number

      A scalar value.

    • Optional result: Cartesian3

    Returns Cartesian3

    The modified result parameter, or a new instance if none was provided.
