具有 lookAt() 功能的 THREE.js 粗箭头

Question

我想制作一个“粗箭头”网格，即像标准箭头助手一样的箭头，但轴由cylinder而不是line制成。

这适用于固定方向的箭头，可以在施工时提供箭头方向。

但现在我需要随时间改变箭头方向（用于跟踪移动目标）。 目前 Object3D.lookAt() function 是不够的，因为箭头指向其 Object3D y 轴，而 lookAt() 将 Object3D z 轴定向以查看给定目标 position。

通过实验，我已经通过使用：-

geometry.applyMatrix( new THREE.Matrix4().makeRotationX( Math.PI / 2 ) );

在轴和头部的几何形状上（2 行在上面的代码摘录中被注释掉了）。 这似乎使圆柱体网格指向正确的方向。 但问题是网格形状错误，头部网格偏离轴网格。

通过反复试验，我可能能够调整代码以使箭头适用于我目前的示例。 但是（考虑到我对四元数的薄弱理解）我不相信它会 (a) 足够通用以适用于所有情况，或者 (b) 足以应对 THREE.js 的演变。

因此，我将不胜感激有关如何实现此“粗箭头”的 lookAt() 功能的任何解决方案/建议。

结语

我的主要观点是不要遵循 Helper Arrow 的设计。

正如 TheJim01 和其他人的回答所表明的那样，使用 Object3D.add()“嵌套”function 有一种更简单的方法。

例如：-

(1) 创建两个圆柱体网格（用于箭头轴和箭头），默认指向 Y 方向； 使几何长度 = 1.0 以帮助将来重新缩放。

(2) 将网格添加到父 Object3D object。

(3) 使用parent.rotateX(Math.PI/2)将父级绕 X 轴旋转 +90 度。

(4) 将父级添加到祖父级 object。

(5) 随后使用grandparent.lookAt(target_point_as_World_position_Vec3_or_x_y_z) 。

如果父母或祖父母的缩放比例不是(n,n,n) NB lookAt() 将无法正常工作。

父和祖父 object 类型可以是普通THREE.Object3D或THREE.Group或THREE.Mesh （如果需要，例如通过设置小尺寸或.visibility=false使其不可见）

Arrow Helper 可以动态使用，但前提是在使用 lookAt() 之前将内部方向设置为 (0,0,1)。

Answer 1

您可以将lookAt应用于任何Object3D 。 Object3D.lookAt(... )

您已经发现， lookAt导致形状指向+Z方向，并且正在对此进行补偿。 但是随着Group的引入，它可以更进一步。 Group也派生自Object3D ，因此它们也支持lookAt方法。

 let W = window.innerWidth; let H = window.innerHeight; const renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer({ antialias: true, alpha: true }); document.body.appendChild(renderer.domElement); const scene = new THREE.Scene(); const camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(28, 1, 1, 1000); camera.position.set(10, 10, 50); camera.lookAt(scene.position); scene.add(camera); const light = new THREE.DirectionalLight(0xffffff, 1); light.position.set(0, 0, -1); camera.add(light); const group = new THREE.Group(); scene.add(group); const arrowMat = new THREE.MeshLambertMaterial({color:"green"}); const arrowGeo = new THREE.ConeBufferGeometry(2, 5, 32); const arrowMesh = new THREE.Mesh(arrowGeo, arrowMat); arrowMesh.rotation.x = Math.PI / 2; arrowMesh.position.z = 2.5; group.add(arrowMesh); const cylinderGeo = new THREE.CylinderBufferGeometry(1, 1, 5, 32); const cylinderMesh = new THREE.Mesh(cylinderGeo, arrowMat); cylinderMesh.rotation.x = Math.PI / 2; cylinderMesh.position.z = -2.5; group.add(cylinderMesh); function render() { renderer.render(scene, camera); } function resize() { W = window.innerWidth; H = window.innerHeight; renderer.setSize(W, H); camera.aspect = W / H; camera.updateProjectionMatrix(); render(); } window.addEventListener("resize", resize); resize(); let rad = 0; function animate() { rad += 0.05; group.lookAt(Math.sin(rad) * 100, Math.cos(rad) * 100, 100); renderer.render(scene, camera); requestAnimationFrame(animate); } requestAnimationFrame(animate);

 html, body { width: 100%; height: 100%; padding: 0; margin: 0; overflow: hidden; background: skyblue; }

 <script src="https://threejs.org/build/three.min.js"></script>

这里的关键是圆锥/轴指向+Z方向，然后添加到Group 。 这意味着他们的方向现在是该组的本地化。 当组的lookAt发生变化时，形状也会随之变化。 并且因为“箭头”形状指向组的局部+Z方向，这意味着它们也指向给group.lookAt(...); .

进一步的工作

这只是一个起点。 您需要调整它以适应您希望它如何使用正确的 position 构造箭头，具有正确的长度等。不过，分组模式应该使lookAt更容易使用。

Answer 2

您所需要的只是对嵌套有更多的了解，这使您可以相对于其父对象放置对象。 如上面的答案所述，您可以使用Group或Object3D ，但您不必这样做。 您可以将箭头嵌套在圆柱体上并将圆柱体指向 z 方向，然后使用内置的、不要过于复杂的方法lookAt 。

尽量不要将矩阵或四元数用于此类简单的事情，因为这会使事情变得更加困难。 由于 THREE.js 允许嵌套框架，因此请利用它！

 const renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer; const camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera; const scene = new THREE.Scene; const mouse = new THREE.Vector2; const raycaster = new THREE.Raycaster; const quaternion = new THREE.Quaternion; const sphere = new THREE.Mesh( new THREE.SphereGeometry( 10, 10, 10 ), new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({ transparent: true, opacity: .1 }) ); const arrow = new THREE.Group; const arrowShaft = new THREE.Mesh( // We want to ensure our arrow is completely offset into one direction // So the translation ensure every bit of it is in Y+ new THREE.CylinderGeometry(.1, .3, 3 ).translate( 0, 1.5, 0 ), new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({ color: 'blue' }) ); const arrowPoint = new THREE.Mesh( // Same thing, translate to all vertices or +Y new THREE.ConeGeometry( 1, 2, 10 ).translate( 0, 1, 0 ), new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({ color: 'red' }) ); const trackerPoint = new THREE.Mesh( new THREE.SphereGeometry(.2 ), new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({ color: 'green' }) ); const clickerPoint = new THREE.Mesh( trackerPoint.geometry, new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({ color: 'yellow' }) ); camera.position.set( 10, 10, 10 ); camera.lookAt( scene.position ); // Place the point at the top of the shaft arrowPoint.position.y = 3; // Point the shaft into the z-direction arrowShaft.rotation.x = Math.PI / 2; // Attach the point to the shaft arrowShaft.add( arrowPoint ); // Add the shaft to the global arrow group arrow.add( arrowShaft ); // Add the arrow to the scene scene.add( arrow ); scene.add( sphere ); scene.add( trackerPoint ); scene.add( clickerPoint ); renderer.domElement.addEventListener( 'mousemove', mouseMove ); renderer.domElement.addEventListener( 'click', mouseClick ); renderer.domElement.addEventListener( 'wheel', mouseWheel ); render(); document.body.appendChild( renderer.domElement ); function render(){ renderer.setSize( innerWidth, innerHeight ); camera.aspect = innerWidth / innerHeight; camera.updateProjectionMatrix(); renderer.render( scene, camera ); } function mouseMove( event ){ mouse.set( event.clientX / event.target.clientWidth * 2 - 1, -event.clientY / event.target.clientHeight * 2 + 1 ); raycaster.setFromCamera( mouse, camera ); const hit = raycaster.intersectObject( sphere ).shift(); if( hit ){ trackerPoint.position.copy( hit.point ); render(); } document.body.classList.toggle( 'tracking', ;.hit ). } function mouseClick( event ){ clickerPoint.position;copy( trackerPoint.position ). arrow;lookAt( trackerPoint;position ). render(). } function mouseWheel( event ){ const angle = Math;PI * event.wheelDeltaX / innerWidth. camera.position.applyQuaternion( quaternion,setFromAxisAngle( scene;up. angle ) ). camera;lookAt( scene;position ); render(); }

您可以使用鼠标四处滚动（如果它有水平滚动，应该在触控板上）并单击以指向箭头。 我还添加了一些跟踪点，因此您可以看到 `lookAt'确实可以工作而不会使其过于复杂，那就是指向您单击包裹球体的点。

有了这个，我肯定经常输入shaft这个词。 它开始听起来很奇怪。
