I am trying to look for a way to indent example code in Doxygen but could not find anything about C# and Xml comments.
Since every attempt is a little long on setting it up and all and I have not found any proper documentation on that issue, I though of asking here.
The idea is to create indentation for C# xml comment. So far I have:
/// <code>public void Method()<br>
/// {<br>
/// <blockquote>float x = 10, y = 10 , z = 0;<br>
/// Vector3 vector = new Vector3 (x, y, z);<br>
/// if(something)<br>
/// <blockquote>Other Code</blockquote></br></blockquote>
/// }</code>
But it draws a blue line on the left side:
Does anyone have a simple and good looking way?
Thanks
How about this?
/// \code
/// public void Method()
/// {
/// float x = 10, y = 10 , z = 0;
/// Vector3 vector = new Vector3 (x, y, z);
/// if(something)
/// Other Code
/// }
/// \endcode
Much easier to read the source comments too :)

It seems straight forward to define a function like this
/// <summary>
/// Build 3D transform matrix with image of unit vectors of axes, and the image of the origin
/// </summary>
/// <param name="xUnit">The image of x axis unit vector</param>
/// <param name="yUnit">The image of y axis unit vector</param>
/// <param name="zUnit">The image of z axis unit vector</param>
/// <param name="offset">The image of the origin</param>
/// <returns>The matrix</returns>
public static Matrix3D MatrixFromVectors(Vector3D xUnit, Vector3D yUnit, Vector3D zUnit, Vector3D offset)
{
var m = new Matrix3D(
xUnit.X, xUnit.Y, xUnit.Z, 0.0,
yUnit.X, yUnit.Y, yUnit.Z, 0.0,
zUnit.X, zUnit.Y, zUnit.Z, 0.0,
0, 0, 0, 1);
m.Translate(offset);
return m;
}
However the test code
...
var m = Geo.MatrixFromVectors(vx,vy,vz,new Vector3D(1,2,3));
var result = m.transform(new Vector3D(1,0,0)) //result: equal to vx
...
shows it does not use the offset at all. How to make it work?
The structures in the Media3D Namespace make a distinction between Vectors and Points. Vector3D is used to specify a position independent value in space (such as an Axis, Surface normal, Acceleration etc.), while Point3D is used to specify position.
Because Vectors are not suppsed to carry position Information Matrix3D.Transform(Vector3D) does not apply the offset. It only transforms the direction of the Vector.
If you pass a Point3D instead of a Vector3D to Matrix3D.Transform(Point3D) it works as expected:
...
var m = Geo.MatrixFromVectors(vx,vy,vz,new Vector3D(1,2,3));
var result = m.transform(new Point3D(0,0,0)) // result is 1,2,3
...
I am attempting to convert euler angle rotations between Unity and Threejs. There are two main issues with this.
Problem 1:
Unity and Threejs have different coordinate systems
Unity:
Threejs
Problem 2:
Unity does euler math in the order ZXY whereas Threejs defaults to XYZ. I have found some formulas on the Threejs side for creating Euler angles using a different order of multiplication, but I would like to know the math behind this so I can go back and forth between the two systems. I am also not sure how the different coordinate systems plays into this conversion math.
EDIT 1
I found this stack overflow post about converting a Unity Quaternion to Threejs:
Convert Unity transforms to THREE.js rotations
However, I was not able to get this code to work for going the opposite direction of Threejs to Unity which is what I need.
I finally found a solution to this using the links below. There may be an easier solution, but nothing else I tried gave me the intended effect. It is worth noting that this was tested with a Threejs camera that is -z facing where +y is up. My unity camera is -z facing with +y facing up. If you have a +z facing camera, which is common in Unity, simply child the GameObject to an empty GameObject and apply a 180 degree Euler rotation to the empty GameObject. This also assumes that the Threejs Euler rotation is the default XYZ ordering.

Problem 1:
Granted I only minored in math but I believe you should simply be able to do a straight mapping as follows for points:
(X, Y, Z) => (X, Y, -Z)
And that should work both ways.
As far as I remember once you convert between coordinates the math should be the same, just make sure you work all in one system or the other to make your life easier. Then you can export results back as needed.
I have set of points. I created strip triangles using these points.
I am using HelixToolkit to draw these rectangles. Function requires list of pointes (triangles will be made using triangle strip) and set of normal vectors. Now I need to calculate normal. What I thought that for each triangle there should be a normal. But function says that for every point there will be a normal. I used three points to calculate normal of a triangle, but how can I calculate normal of a point.
So if am using the example shown in the figure what will be normal of All points (A, B, C, D, E, F).
Here is the method which I am calling.
/// <summary>
/// Adds a triangle strip to the mesh.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="stripPositions">
/// The points of the triangle strip.
/// </param>
/// <param name="stripNormals">
/// The normal vectors of the triangle strip.
/// </param>
/// <param name="stripTextureCoordinates">
/// The texture coordinates of the triangle strip.
/// </param>
/// <remarks>
/// See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_strip.
/// </remarks>
public void AddTriangleStrip(
IList<Point3D> stripPositions,
IList<Vector3D> stripNormals = null,
IList<Point> stripTextureCoordinates = null)
Here is what I have.
var points = new List<Point3D>();
// populate points.
// TODO: populate Normal for each point.
AddTriangleStrip(points, normal);
I used this method to calculate normal of a surface.
private static Vector3D CalculateNormal(Point3D firstPoint, Point3D secondPoint, Point3D thirdPoint)
{
var u = new Point3D(firstPoint.X - secondPoint.X,
firstPoint.Y - secondPoint.Y,
firstPoint.Z - secondPoint.Z);
var v = new Point3D(secondPoint.X - thirdPoint.X,
secondPoint.Y - thirdPoint.Y,
secondPoint.Z - thirdPoint.Z);
return new Vector3D(u.Y * v.Z - u.Z * v.Y, u.Z * v.X - u.X * v.Z, u.X * v.Y - u.Y * v.X);
}
There is no such concept like a normal of Point. Normal refers to a surface and not to a point, so I presume that we are talking here about average normal of all neighbour faces of a given point .
For this, you should know somehow from given point all connected to it faces.
For every face calculate its normal and make an average of them
Hope this helps.
I've got two rectangles on WindowsForm and I would like to check if they collide. For simple non-rotated collision it looks like this:
Point newLocation; // upper-left corner of the object to check its collision
Size objectSize; // the object size
bool collision = false;
foreach (Object otherObject in otherObjects)
{
if (newLocation.X >= otherObject.location.X && newLocation.X <= otherObject.location.X + otherObject.size.width)
if (newLocation.Y >= otherObject.location.Y && newLocation.Y <= otherObject.location.Y + otherObject.size.height)
{
collision = true;
break;
}
}
But now I rotated both objects with:
Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
matrix.RotateAt(angle, newLocation);
graphics.Transform = matrix;
How can I check for the collisions at the rotated matrix? Can I somehow get the translated X, Y coordinates?
I have some code to transfer points from the standard coordinate system to a specific coordinate system (but in you case, Y increases downards in screen, so some adjusts were made and commented).
Here, the double[] represents a point, where index 0 is X coordinate and index 1 is Y.
Notice the angle of the new coordinate system is measurede counterclockwise and in radians. (Multiply by Pi/180 to transform degrees to radians).
/// <summary>
/// Implemented - Returns the point coordinates related to a new coordinate system
/// Does not change original point
/// </summary>
/// <param name="Point">Point to be returned in new coordinate system</param>

/// <param name="NewSystemOrigin">Location of the new origin point in the current coordinate system</param>
/// <returns></returns>
public double[] ChangeCoordinateSystem(double[] Point, double NewSystemCouterClockRotation, double[] NewSystemOrigin)
{
//first adjust: fix that winform downwards increasing Y before applying the method
Point[1] = -Point[1];
NewSystemOrigin[1] = -NewSystemOrigin[1]
//end of first adjust
//original method
double[] Displacement = new double[2] { Point[0] - NewSystemOrigin[0], Point[1] - NewSystemOrigin[1] };
double[] Result = new double[2]
{
+ Displacement[0] * Math.Cos(NewSystemCouterClockRotation) + Displacement[1] * Math.Sin(NewSystemCouterClockRotation),
- Displacement[0] * Math.Sin(NewSystemCouterClockRotation) + Displacement[1] * Math.Cos(NewSystemCouterClockRotation)
};
//second adjust: reset Y of the result
Result[1] = - Result[1];
return Result;
}
But, if your two objects have different angles, you should be careful, the best way to do that is to check if all four corners of the first of the first rectangle are not inside the other object AND if the other object four corners are not inside the first as well.
Some algorythm to find out if a point is inside a polygon can be found here:

I'm currently making a 3D car game using XNA 3.1. It is a taxi game. So my main vehicle encounters traffic vehicles during the game. I'm having problems with coding the collision detection among traffic vehicles and the main vehicle. I used the bounding box method instead of bounding sphere method because bounding spheres don't cover the vehicles properly.
Below is the code i used to achieve collision. Problem with it is when the vehicle turns left or right bounding box doesn't change according to that.
I wrote this code in the update method.
carWorld = Matrix.CreateScale(1f) * Matrix.CreateTranslation(vehicalClassObs[0].Position);
trafficWorld = Matrix.CreateScale(1f) * Matrix.CreateTranslation(carObject.Position);
BoundingBox b=CalculateBoundingBox(carO);
BoundingBox c=CalculateBoundingBox(car);
Vector3[] obb = new Vector3[8];
b.GetCorners(obb);
Vector3.Transform(obb, ref carWorld, obb);
BoundingBox worldAABB = BoundingBox.CreateFromPoints(obb);
Vector3[] occ=new Vector3[8];
c.GetCorners(occ);
Vector3.Transform(occ, ref trafficWorld, occ);
BoundingBox worldAACC = BoundingBox.CreateFromPoints(occ);
if (worldAABB.Intersects(worldAACC))
col = true;
else col = false;
Below is the CalculateBoundingBox method
public BoundingBox CalculateBoundingBox(Model m_model)
{
// Create variables to hold min and max xyz values for the model. Initialise them to extremes
Vector3 modelMax = new Vector3(float.MinValue, float.MinValue, float.MinValue);
Vector3 modelMin = new Vector3(float.MaxValue, float.MaxValue, float.MaxValue);
foreach (ModelMesh mesh in m_model.Meshes)
{
Matrix[] m_transforms = new Matrix[m_model.Bones.Count];
m_model.CopyAbsoluteBoneTransformsTo(m_transforms);
//Create variables to hold min and max xyz values for the mesh. Initialise them to extremes
Vector3 meshMax = new Vector3(float.MinValue, float.MinValue, float.MinValue);
Vector3 meshMin = new Vector3(float.MaxValue, float.MaxValue, float.MaxValue);
// There may be multiple parts in a mesh (different materials etc.) so loop through each
foreach (ModelMeshPart part in mesh.MeshParts)
{
// The stride is how big, in bytes, one vertex is in the vertex buffer
// We have to use this as we do not know the make up of the vertex
int stride = part.VertexDeclaration.GetVertexStrideSize(0);
byte[] vertexData = new byte[stride * part.NumVertices];
mesh.VertexBuffer.GetData(part.BaseVertex * stride, vertexData, 0, part.NumVertices, 1); // fixed 13/4/11
// Find minimum and maximum xyz values for this mesh part
// We know the position will always be the first 3 float values of the vertex data
Vector3 vertPosition=new Vector3();
for (int ndx = 0; ndx < vertexData.Length; ndx += stride)
{
vertPosition.X= BitConverter.ToSingle(vertexData, ndx);
vertPosition.Y = BitConverter.ToSingle(vertexData, ndx + sizeof(float));
vertPosition.Z= BitConverter.ToSingle(vertexData, ndx + sizeof(float)*2);
// update our running values from this vertex
meshMin = Vector3.Min(meshMin, vertPosition);
meshMax = Vector3.Max(meshMax, vertPosition);
}
}
// transform by mesh bone transforms
meshMin = Vector3.Transform(meshMin, m_transforms[mesh.ParentBone.Index]);
meshMax = Vector3.Transform(meshMax, m_transforms[mesh.ParentBone.Index]);
// Expand model extents by the ones from this mesh
modelMin = Vector3.Min(modelMin, meshMin);
modelMax = Vector3.Max(modelMax, meshMax);
}
// Create and return the model bounding box
return new BoundingBox(modelMin, modelMax);
}
If someone can help me to solve this problem it wil be very helpful. If there is a better way to achieve collision other than the way i used please let me know about that method.
You have a couple of options here. The easiest is to transform the vehicle's bounding box according to the vehicle's world transforms (no projection or view required here since you're not concerned about camera position when checking for collisions.)
Assuming you already have the vehicle's original bounding box,
/// <summary>
/// Transforms a bounding box for collision detection
/// </summary>
/// <param name="vehicleBounds">Original, object-centered bounding box that contains a car model</param>
/// <param name="vehicleWorldMatrix">Vehicle's world transformation matrix (does not include projection or view)</param>
/// <returns>An axis-aligned bounding box (AABB) that will com </returns>
protected BoundingBox TransformBoundingBox(BoundingBox vehicleBounds, Matrix vehicleWorldMatrix)
{
var vertices = vehicleBounds.GetCorners();
/// get a couple of vertices to hold the outer bounds of the transformed bounding box.
var minVertex = new Vector3(float.MaxValue);
var maxVertex = new Vector3(float.MinValue);
for(int i=0;i<vertices.Length;i++)
{
var transformedVertex = Vector3.Transform(vertices[i],vehicleWorldMatrix);
/// update min and max with the component-wise minimum of each transformed vertex
/// to find the outer limits fo teh transformed bounding box
minVertex = Vector3.Min(minVertex, transformedVertex);
maxVertex = Vector3.Max(maxVertex, transformedVertex);
}
var result = new BoundingBox(minVertex, maxVertex);
return result;
}
For each vehicle, use that method to create a temporary bounding box to use for collisions. Only test transformed bounding boxes against each other, and do not overwrite you're original bounding box as you'll need to recalculate this box from your source any time the vehicle moves.
If you're using a multi-mesh model, use BoundingBox.CreateMerged() to combine them to get a box that contains the entire model, or perform your collisions for each sub-mesh bounding box (though this can get expensive without using some sort of acceleration structure).
What I have been using is a very simple method which can fit almost any situation. Here it is:
//Create one of the matricies
//Vector3 loc = new Vector3(0, 0, 0); //Wherever the model is.
//Matrix world1 = Matrix.CreateTransform(loc);
private bool IsCollision(Model model1, Matrix world1, Model model2, Matrix world2)
{
for (int meshIndex1 = 0; meshIndex1 < model1.Meshes.Count; meshIndex1++)
{
BoundingSphere sphere1 = model1.Meshes[meshIndex1].BoundingSphere;
sphere1 = sphere1.Transform(world1);
for (int meshIndex2 = 0; meshIndex2 < model2.Meshes.Count; meshIndex2++)
{
BoundingSphere sphere2 = model2.Meshes[meshIndex2].BoundingSphere;
sphere2 = sphere2.Transform(world2);
if (sphere1.Intersects(sphere2))
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
You can change all the spheres to boxes, but this might work. Additionally, what I do is move the location one axis at a time (X axis then Y axis then Z axis). This creates smoother collision.
