voxelize

Syntax

voxelize [-s \"dx dy dz\"] [-d n] [-t f] new_obj old_obj [old_obj2 old_obj3 ...]

Argument(s)

-d
Specifies the level of detail(precision in approximation of volume) required. An input of n means that n * n rays will be shot through each row, and an approximation of volume filled is reached averaging these n * n values
-s
Specifies the voxel size in each direction.
-t
Specifies the threshold volume to decide if voxel is to be included in the voxelized output.
new_object
Name for resultant primitive
old_object
Name of source primitive or collection.


Return Value(s)

None


Description

"voxelize" command takes as input a primitive or a collection (the "old object") and outputs a collection of RPPs(voxels) that approximate the old object.

The user can change the level of detail, the threshold for considering a voxel region to be "filled", and also the voxel size depending on how closely the new object should represent the old object.
