Diligent::Plane3D Struct Reference

#include <AdvancedMath.hpp>

Public Attributes
float3	Normal
float	Distance = 0

Detailed Description

A plane in 3D space described by the plane equation:

dot(Normal, Point) + Distance = 0 

Member Data Documentation

Distance

float Diligent::Plane3D::Distance = 0

Distance from the plane to the coordinate system origin along the normal direction:

dot(Normal, Point) = -Distance


O         |   N
*<--------|==>
          |

Note

The distance is measured in the same units as the normal vector.

Normal

float3 Diligent::Plane3D::Normal

Plane normal.

Note

The normal does not have to be normalized as long as it is measured in the same units as Distance.
