Povray

This article provides knowledge about different types of geometric primitive objects that can be exported from BRL-CAD to POV-Ray geometry file. Their properties, functions used for them, parameters are discussed in section below.

To Know more about POV-Ray, here are some links below:

• Introduction to POV-Ray
• Adding Standard include files, Camera, Light source in POV-Ray Geometry file

Below is the list of primitives that are working/exported correctly, partially and not touched yet.

Sphere

Sphere is formed by Center and Radius Example:

     sphere { Center, Radius [OBJECT_MODIFIERS...]}

Torus

Torus is created using major radius and minor radius Example:

    torus { 4, 1 pigment { Green }}

Cone

Cone is created using Center and radius of one end Center and radius of other end Example:

     cone {<0, 1, 0>, 0.3  <1, 2, 3>, 1.0 texture { T_Stone25 scale 4 }}
