Member Function Documentation

◆ intersect()

virtual bool cgv::data::ray_intersectable::intersect	(	const cgv::ray3 &	ray,
		ray_intersection_info &	info
	)		const

pure virtual

Test if the object is intersected by the given ray.

The info struct collects additional information about the intersection. The ray parameter t must be set to ensure correct behaviour in any potential outside traversal procedures. The remaining data is optional and may be set as available by the primitive and needed by the caller site.

Parameters

ray	The ray to intersect with.
info	The ray_intersection_info to collect additional intersection data.

Returns: True if the object is intersected by the ray; false otherwise.
