differt.rt.intersection_of_ray_with_plane

intersection_of_ray_with_plane(ray_origin, ray_direction, plane_vertex, plane_normal)

Return the intersection point between the ray and the (infinite) plane.

Warning

If a ray is parallel to the corresponding plane, then an infinite value is returned, as a result of a division by zero, except for the cases where the ray_origins vertices already lie on the plane, then ray_origins is returned.

Parameters:

• ray_origin (Float[ArrayLike, '*#batch 3']) – Origin vertex.

• ray_direction (Float[ArrayLike, '*#batch 3']) – Ray direction. The ray end should be equal to ray_origin + ray_direction.

• plane_vertex (Float[ArrayLike, '*#batch 3']) – Plane vertex. For each plane, any vertex on this plane can be used.

• plane_normal (Float[ArrayLike, '*#batch 3']) – Plane normal, where each normal has a unit length and is perpendicular to the corresponding plane.

Return type:

Float[Array, '*batch 3']

Returns:

Intersection point with the (infinite) plane.
