write_corona_obj: Write Customized SARS COVID-19 3D Model

In tylermorganwall/coronaobj: Customizable 3D Model of the SARS CoV2 Virion.

Description

This function writes out a custom 3D model of the COVID-19 virus, with colors specified by the user. The user can change the color of the main body, the color of the spike protein, and the color of an open spike protein.

Usage

write_corona_obj(
  filename = "covidcustom.obj",
  color_membrane = "#a1cdf0",
  color_spike = "#3432cf",
  color_open_spike = "#d92bc5"
)

Arguments

filename	Default 'covidcustom.obj'.
color_membrane	Default '#a1cdf0'. Color of the main membrane (lipid layer) of the coronavirus.
color_spike	Default '#3432cf'. Color of the closed spike protein (crown) on the coronavirus.
color_open_spike	Default '#d92bc5'. Color of the open spike protein (crown) on the coronavirus.

Details

The base model was sourced from the NIH 3D Print Exchange.

Value

Path to the file.

Examples

library(rayrender)
#Write a base version of the model and render it with rayrender, using vertex colors.


write_corona_obj("defaults.obj")

#Render the model:
obj_model("defaults.obj", vertex_colors = TRUE) %>%
  add_object(sphere(y=10,z=10,x=10, material=light(color="lightblue",intensity=100))) %>%
  add_object(sphere(y=10,z=10,x=-10, material=light(color="orange",intensity=100))) %>%
  render_scene(parallel=TRUE, samples = 100, fov = 7, min_variance=0, focal_distance = 9.6,
               width=800,height=800)

#Now write a custom version, recreating the "standard" grey and red COVID-19 visualization.

write_corona_obj("standard.obj",
                color_membrane = "#a1cdf0",
                color_spike = "#3432cf",
                color_open_spike = "#d92bc5")

#Render the custom model:
obj_model("standard.obj", vertex_colors = TRUE) %>%
  add_object(sphere(y=10,z=10,x=10, material=light(color="lightblue",intensity=100))) %>%
  add_object(sphere(y=10,z=10,x=-10, material=light(color="orange",intensity=100))) %>%
  render_scene(parallel=TRUE, samples = 100, fov = 7, min_variance=0, focal_distance = 9.6,
               width=800,height=800)
