NURBSSurface

This class represents a NURBS surface.

Implementation is based on (x, y [, z=0 [, w=1]]) control points with w=weight.

Import

NURBSSurface is an addon, and must be imported explicitly, see Installation#Addons.

import { NURBSSurface } from 'three/addons/curves/NURBSSurface.js';

Constructor

new NURBSSurface( degree1 : number, degree2 : number, knots1 : Array.<number>, knots2 : Array.<number>, controlPoints : Array.<Array.<(Vector2|Vector3|Vector4)>> )

Constructs a new NURBS surface.

degree1 | The first NURBS degree.
---|---
degree2 | The second NURBS degree.
knots1 | The first knots as a flat array of numbers.
knots2 | The second knots as a flat array of numbers.
controlPoints | An array^2 holding control points.

Properties

.controlPoints : Array.<Array.<(Vector2|Vector3|Vector4)>>

An array holding arrays of control points.

.degree1 : number

The first NURBS degree.

.degree2 : number

The second NURBS degree.

.knots1 : Array.<number>

The first knots as a flat array of numbers.

.knots2 : Array.<number>

The second knots as a flat array of numbers.

Methods

.getPoint( t1 : number, t2 : number, target : Vector3 )

This method returns a vector in 3D space for the given interpolation factor. This vector lies on the NURBS surface.

t1 | The first interpolation factor representing the u position on the surface. Must be in the range [0,1].
---|---
t2 | The second interpolation factor representing the v position on the surface. Must be in the range [0,1].
target | The target vector the result is written to.
