Generate a torus mesh

Creates a torus (donut shape) centred at center, lying in the XZ plane.

Usage

generate_torus(
  center = c(0, 0, 0),
  major_radius = 1,
  minor_radius = 0.3,
  major_segments = 32,
  minor_segments = 16,
  color = c(0.7, 0.7, 0.7, 1)
)

Arguments

center

Length-3 vector: centre of the torus.

major_radius

Radius of the ring (tube path).

minor_radius

Radius of the tube cross-section.

major_segments

Number of segments around the ring.

minor_segments

Number of segments around the tube.

color

Length-4 RGBA colour.

Value

A mesh descriptor list.

Examples

mesh <- generate_torus(major_radius = 2, minor_radius = 0.5)
nrow(mesh$vertices)
#> [1] 512
