intersect(
    scene: Scene,
    camera: Camera,
    point: Vector2,
    castLayers?: Array<ObjectLayers>,
    nearest?: boolean,
    bounds?: Box3,
    firstOnly?: boolean,
    tasOnly?: boolean
  ): Array<ExtendedIntersection> | null
Scene intersect function.
All intersect calls from this class will use the available acceleration structures. This makes the intersection significantly faster than using your own three.js raycasters.
Parameters
  • scene: Scene
  • camera: Camera
  • point: The NDC point to cast the ray from
  • castLayers: The ObjectLayers enabled on the raycaster
  • nearest: If the results should be sorted by dinstance. i.e nearest first
  • bounds: An optional bounds where the intersecting takes place. Everything outside this bounds is disregarded from the result list for this cast. Any object outside of these layers is disregarded from intersection
  • firstOnly: When this flag is enabled the acceleration structure will stop traversing after encountering the first intersection. Only applies to meshes
  • tasOnly: When this flag is enabled, onyl the TAS will be intersected. Can be combined with firstOnly if wanted Returns: Array< Intersection > Three.js defined intersection

intersectRay

intersectRay(
    scene: Scene,
    camera: Camera,
    ray: Ray,
    castLayers: ObjectLayers.STREAM_CONTENT_MESH,
    nearest?: boolean,
    bounds?: Box3,
    firstOnly?: boolean,
    tasOnly?: boolean
  ): Array<ExtendedMeshIntersection> | null
intersectRay(
    scene: Scene,
    camera: Camera,
    ray: Ray,
    castLayers?: Array<ObjectLayers>,
    nearest?: boolean,
    bounds?: Box3,
    firstOnly?: boolean,
    tasOnly?: boolean
  ): Array<ExtendedIntersection> | null
Scene intersect function using a provided Ray.
All intersect calls from this class will use the available acceleration structures. This makes the intersection significantly faster than using your own three.js raycasters.
Parameters
  • scene: Scene
  • camera: Camera
  • ray: The ray to use for casting
  • castLayers: The ObjectLayers enabled on the raycaster
  • nearest: If the results should be sorted by dinstance. i.e nearest first
  • bounds: An optional bounds where the intersecting takes place. Everything outside this bounds is disregarded from the result list for this cast. Any object outside of these layers is disregarded from intersection
  • firstOnly: When this flag is enabled the acceleration structure will stop traversing after encountering the first intersection. Only applies to meshes
  • tasOnly: When this flag is enabled, onyl the TAS will be intersected. Can be combined with firstOnly if wanted Returns: Array< Intersection > Three.js defined intersection
