compute_vertex_normals: Compute per-vertex normals for a mesh
In scimesh: Headless Publication-Quality 3D Mesh Rendering Engine
compute_vertex_normals R Documentation
Compute per-vertex normals for a mesh
Description
Computes smooth vertex normals by averaging face normals. Returns
the same mesh with a normals component (Nx3 numeric matrix).
Useful for imported meshes that lack pre-computed normals.
Usage
compute_vertex_normals(mesh)
Arguments
mesh
A mesh descriptor list with vertices and
triangles.
Value
The mesh with a normals component added.
Examples
mesh <- generate_cuboid(c(0, 0, 0), c(1, 1, 1))
mesh <- compute_vertex_normals(mesh)
nrow(mesh$normals)
