NAME
rtcGetGeometryTransform - returns the interpolated instance transformation for the specified time
SYNOPSIS
#include <embree4/rtcore.h> void rtcGetGeometryTransform( RTCGeometry geometry, float time, enum RTCFormat format, void* xfm );
DESCRIPTION
The rtcGetGeometryTransform function returns the interpolated local to world transformation ( xfm parameter) of an instance geometry ( geometry parameter) for a particular time ( time parameter in range [0, 1]) in the specified format ( format parameter).
Possible formats for the returned matrix are:
|
• |
RTC_FORMAT_FLOAT3X4_ROW_MAJOR : The 3×4 float matrix is laid out in row-major form. |
||
|
• |
RTC_FORMAT_FLOAT3X4_COLUMN_MAJOR : The 3×4 float matrix is laid out in column-major form. |
||
|
• |
RTC_FORMAT_FLOAT4X4_COLUMN_MAJOR : The 3×4 float matrix is laid out in column-major form as a 4×4 homogeneous matrix with last row equal to (0, 0, 0, 1). |
This function is supposed to be used during rendering, but only supported on the CPU and not inside SYCL kernels on the GPU. Inside a SYCL kernel the rtcGetGeometryTransformFromScene function has to get used.
EXIT STATUS
On failure an error code is set that can be queried using rtcGetDeviceError .
