Three.js - Collision by raycasting with a rotated origin mesh - three.js

Hello I try to control a mesh, he can turn and moove relative to its rotation by mesh.translate.
But for collisions, i cant find how to raycast relative to its rotation.
If the origin mesh is not rotated or if I moove it with mesh.position.x++, it works. But rotated and with translateX(1), it's not ok.
Thank you for your attention.
Here is my function only for right side (+X) :
function coll(b1,b2){
var hit = false;
var dist = (width/2);
var matrix = new THREE.Matrix4();
matrix.extractRotation( b1.matrix );
var origin = new THREE.Vector3(b1.position.x,b1.position.y,b1.position.z);
var direction = new THREE.Vector3( 1, 0, 0 );
direction = matrix.multiplyVector3( direction );
var ray = new THREE.Raycaster(origin, direction,0,dist);
var collisionResult = ray.intersectObject(b2);
if(collisionResult!=0){
hit = true; b1.translateX( -1 );
}else{
hit = false;
}//if
return hit;
}//coll()
And this is the entire code just in case :

mesh.position.x = -100;

mesh.rotation.z = 1;

function animate() {

coll(mesh,mesh2);
moove(mesh);
renderer.render( scene, camera );
}//animate()
</script>
</body>
</html>
I also tried with quaternion but its still the same result :
direction.applyQuaternion( b1.quaternion );
I have a collision with mesh.position.x++ so maybe translateX does something wrong ?

It is ok now. This collision works good finally.

Draw a line from the camera position to the origin

Using threejs, I'm trying to draw a line from the camera position to the origin.
I expect that the line will always point to the middle of the screen (assuming that the renedered scene is viewed from the camera origin)
but it does not (the line always points towards the side of the screen).
The code below is a subset of the formal threejs webgl_geometry_extrude_shapes.html example.
I added the function draw_line_from_camera_to_origin(scene, camera)
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Avner

You need to update the location of the other point.
When you first create the line you tell it a point in space and it never moves from there. It may seem like its moving around but thats just because it is a very long line.
So you need to make geometry2 a global variable (at the top):
var camera, scene, renderer, controls, geomerty2;
Then remove var when you declare geometry2 in draw_line_from_camera_to_origin
Then your animation loop should be:
function animate() {
geometry2.vertices[0].x = camera.position.x;
geometry2.vertices[0].y = camera.position.y;
geometry2.vertices[0].z = camera.position.z;
geometry2.verticesNeedUpdate = true;
requestAnimationFrame( animate );
controls.update();
renderer.render( scene, camera );
}
Now when you move the camera you see the line move with it then drift back to the camera's position. I'm not sure why it does that, I was actually expecting the line to be invisible (because lines have 0 width, and its pointing directly at the camera).
But anyways, happy coding haha hello world 42

Consistent rotation on click as opposed to drag

I'm probably missing something to get this done.

The idea is to click an area in space and rotate the camera (or camera lookat) to that point based on the mouse coordinates to world coordinates thing that is going on in the example. the smaller the interpolation factor in lerp, the more pronounced the inaccurate rotation presents itself.
I tried passing both matrices and vectors into lerp, but I get the exact same behavior. Without lerp, it doesn't look like the problem exists, although it's hard to tell.
I need help just to diagnose, let alone fix it.
Related to this: Tween question but I wanted to eliminate tween.js, partially on comments I received there.
Thank you!

Rotate a moving model to be parallel on a plane geometry

I am trying to rotate a model on a plane geometry that represents a hill. I use the following code. My problem is that though the model see to have the correct rotation when start animating and is parallel to the face it is moving when getting near and overcoming the point(0,0,0) it is rotating weirdly. Maybe the problem that I have set the up of the model to be the vector(0,0,1) (you can copy paste to an editor and view the example on your browser):

Any ideas to keep the models rotation parallel to the face it is on?
Similar question with this one that has no answer.
i have take the code above and after playing with it for a while was able to get the effect you were going for but maybe not the way that answers your question... here is what i have found anyway... and another note i think i was working with the code that was first posted..
so it's been a long time scene i have dealt with 3d code (2001-2002 time frame) so my knowledge may be both rusty and out of date with newer trends. plus i am new to this frame work.

so basically your LookAt is "pointing" the horse at some point in 3d space at first i assumed it was a vector direction and maybe that what you were assuming too, i at least was wrong, so you have to put your point "in front" of the current position of the object. i added some delta vars and kept track of the lastZ position value (as i write this i realized i could have used a vector for that) so i found the "next spot" the object will be at and used that as the PointToLookat.

three.js set background image

How to create a static background image?
For default background:
scene = new THREE.Scene();
// ...
renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer( { antialias: false } );
renderer.setClearColor( scene.fog.color, 1 );
How to set a image for scene.fog, or set opacity for clearcolor?
If you are trying to set a static background image (even if you rotate your main camera, the background doesn't change), you have to create 2 scenes and 2 cameras.
The first scene will be composed of a basic plane on which a texture is applied.
The second scene will have all your objects.
Here is a code that would do it :
<html>
<body>
<script src="Three.js"></script>
<script>
var color = 0x000000;
// Create your main scene
var scene = new THREE.Scene();
// Create your main camera
var camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(75, window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight, 0.1, 1000);
// Create lights
var light = new THREE.PointLight(0xEEEEEE);
light.position.set(20, 0, 20);
scene.add(light);
var lightAmb = new THREE.AmbientLight(0x777777);
scene.add(lightAmb);
// Create your renderer
var renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer();
renderer.setSize(window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight);
document.body.appendChild(renderer.domElement);
// Create a cube
var geometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry(1, 1, 1);
var material = new THREE.MeshLambertMaterial({
color: 0xff00ff,
ambient: 0x121212,
emissive: 0x121212
});
var cube = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material);
scene.add(cube);
// Set up the main camera
camera.position.z = 5;
// Load the background texture
var texture = THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture( '1.jpg' );
var backgroundMesh = new THREE.Mesh(
new THREE.PlaneGeometry(2, 2, 0),
new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({
map: texture
}));
backgroundMesh .material.depthTest = false;
backgroundMesh .material.depthWrite = false;
// Create your background scene
var backgroundScene = new THREE.Scene();
var backgroundCamera = new THREE.Camera();
backgroundScene .add(backgroundCamera );
backgroundScene .add(backgroundMesh );
// Rendering function
var render = function () {
requestAnimationFrame(render);
// Update the color to set
if (color < 0xdddddd) color += 0x0000ff;
// Update the cube color
cube.material.color.setHex(color);
// Update the cube rotations
cube.rotation.x += 0.05;
cube.rotation.y += 0.02;
renderer.autoClear = false;
renderer.clear();
renderer.render(backgroundScene , backgroundCamera );
renderer.render(scene, camera);
};
render();
</script>
</body>
</html>
**Demo right here **
Hope this helps.
NOTE (2014/06/28): This code works with the latest release of Three.js: R67
Use Texture loader to load a any image as texture and then apply that to scene like this:
//Load background texture
const loader = new THREE.TextureLoader();
loader.load('https://images.pexels.com/photos/1205301/pexels-photo-1205301.jpeg' , function(texture)
{
scene.background = texture;
});
Result:
Demo:
See the Pen Flat Earth Three.JS by Hitesh Sahu (#hiteshsahu) on CodePen.
this run:
renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer({ antialias: false,alpha:true });
renderer.setSize( window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight );
renderer.setClearColor(0x000000, 0);
An background image can be set by setting the scene.background attribute of the THREE.Scene:
scene = new THREE.Scene();
bgTexture = loader.load("https://i.stack.imgur.com/vDUZz.jpg",
function ( texture ) {
var img = texture.image;
bgWidth= img.width;
bgHeight = img.height;
resize();
} );
scene.background = bgTexture;
bgTexture.wrapS = THREE.MirroredRepeatWrapping;
bgTexture.wrapT = THREE.MirroredRepeatWrapping;
The aspect ratio of the image can be adjusted to the aspect ratio of the canvas like this:
var aspect = window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight;
var texAspect = bgWidth / bgHeight;
var relAspect = aspect / texAspect;
bgTexture.repeat = new THREE.Vector2(
Math.max(relAspect, 1),
Math.max(1/relAspect,1) );
bgTexture.offset = new THREE.Vector2(
-Math.max(relAspect-1, 0)/2,
-Math.max(1/relAspect-1, 0)/2 );
See the code snippet:
(function onLoad() {
var container, loader, camera, scene, renderer, controls, bgTexture, bgWidth, bgHeight;
init();
animate();
function init() {
container = document.getElementById('container');
renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer({

container.appendChild(renderer.domElement);
camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(70, window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight, 1, 100);
camera.position.set(0, -4, -1.5);
loader = new THREE.TextureLoader();
loader.setCrossOrigin("");
scene = new THREE.Scene();
bgTexture = loader.load("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Rabbid76/graphics-snippets/master/resource/texture/background.jpg",
function ( texture ) {
var img = texture.image;
bgWidth= img.width;
bgHeight = img.height;
resize();
}
);
scene.background = bgTexture;
bgTexture.wrapS = THREE.MirroredRepeatWrapping;
bgTexture.wrapT = THREE.MirroredRepeatWrapping;
scene.add(camera);
window.onresize = resize;
var ambientLight = new THREE.AmbientLight(0x404040);
scene.add(ambientLight);
var directionalLight = new THREE.DirectionalLight( 0xffffff, 0.5 );
directionalLight.position.x = -0.75;
directionalLight.position.y = -0.5;
directionalLight.position.z = -1;
scene.add( directionalLight );
controls = new THREE.OrbitControls(camera, renderer.domElement);
createModel();
}
function createModel() {
var material = new THREE.MeshPhongMaterial({color:'#b090b0'});
var geometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry( 1, 1, 1 );
var mesh = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material);
scene.add(mesh);
}
function resize() {
var aspect = window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight;
var texAspect = bgWidth / bgHeight;
var relAspect = aspect / texAspect;
bgTexture.repeat = new THREE.Vector2( Math.max(relAspect, 1), Math.max(1/relAspect,1) );
bgTexture.offset = new THREE.Vector2( -Math.max(relAspect-1, 0)/2, -Math.max(1/relAspect-1, 0)/2 );
renderer.setSize(window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight);
camera.aspect = aspect;
camera.updateProjectionMatrix();
}
function animate() {
requestAnimationFrame(animate);

function render() {
renderer.render(scene, camera);

It seems rather late in the day to be adding any contribution to this thread but here is my 'hap'orth':
<head>
<meta charset=utf-8>
<title>Temple7</title>
<style>
body { margin: 0;
}
canvas { width: 100%; height: 100%;
background-image:url(Clouds.jpg);
}
</style>
</head>
This rather simplistic approach has its limitations. The .jpg image retains its pixel dimensions so that, for different sizes of the browser window one sees different amounts of the image. If the canvas size exceeds the size of the .jpg, then tiling occurs.

How can I identify a point on tube circumference and how to rotate a tube from that point ?
OrbitControls, for example, has a property target which is both the center of rotation and the camera look-at position.
controls = new THREE.OrbitControls( camera );
You can change the center of rotation of the camera using picking.
function onDocumentMouseDown( event ) {
event.preventDefault();
var vector = new THREE.Vector3(
( event.clientX / window.innerWidth ) * 2 - 1,
- ( event.clientY / window.innerHeight ) * 2 + 1,
0.5 );
projector.unprojectVector( vector, camera );
var ray = new THREE.Raycaster( camera.position, vector.sub( camera.position ).normalize() );
var intersects = ray.intersectObjects( objects );
if ( intersects.length > 0 ) {
controls.target.copy( intersects[0].point );
}
}
