UE::Geometry::IsCapsuleMesh

Detect if input Mesh is a meshed approximation of an analytic Capsule, and if so return best guess in CapsuleOut.

Windows

MacOS

Linux

Syntax

namespace UE
{
    namespace Geometry
    {
        bool UE::Geometry::IsCapsuleMesh
        (
            const FDynamicMesh3 & Mesh,
            FCapsule3d & CapsuleOut,
            double RelativeDeviationTol
        )
    }
}

Remarks

Detect if input Mesh is a meshed approximation of an analytic Capsule, and if so return best guess in CapsuleOut. Fits a capsule to input points, then measures chordal deviation of edge midpoints.

Returns

true if mesh is a Capsule and CapsuleOut is initialized

Parameters

Parameter	Description
RelativeDeviationTol	distances from edge midpoints to capsule surface are allowed to deviate by 2RadiusRelativeDeviationTol
