如何将对象的Y轴与从其父级的中心点终止的向量对齐

标签: c++ opengl orientation axis transformation

所以我有一个物体(球体),我想将球体的y轴与用于绘制其中点的矢量对齐。

现在,所有创建的对象都有轴'如下所示设置,因此在世界空间中创建的所有内容都具有轴方向,如下图所示。但是我希望球体的轴在局部坐标中的y轴在它们的父对象(它们所围绕的球体)的方向上,但是我不确定我可以为每个对象做什么毯子转换为了这个转型发生。

enter image description here

下图是物体的理想方向。

Desired orientation of object axis'

我需要这个方向,所以孩子的球体而不是像他们在下面的两张图片中那样向上指向,根据方向向外突出。因此,如果我要在底部生成一个球体,而不是在其x轴顶部生成子球体,然后将其与大中心球体合并,则它们向外指向远离大中心球体

下面是我生成球体的代码(我在这段代码中产生了比图9更多的球体,但是减少了图片中存在的球体数量,以便澄清并且不会使图像混乱)

bool static CreateSphereLevels(Sphere *parent, float childRadiusRatio, int levels,
            Material** materials)

{
    if (levels == 1) {
        for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
            Sphere * s = new Sphere(childRadiusRatio, materials[i % 6]);
            parent->AddChild(s);
            float rm = parent->GetRadius() + s->GetRadius();
            if (i == 0)
                s->SetPosition(vec3(0.0f, rm, 0.0f));
            if (i >= 1 && i < 6)
                s->SetPosition(vec3(RotationY(60 * i) * vec4(0.0f, rm, 0.0f, 0.0f)));
            if (i == 1 || i == 3 || i == 5) {
                Sphere * sn = new Sphere(childRadiusRatio, materials[i]);
                parent->AddChild(sn);
                sn->SetPosition(vec3(RotationY(60 * i) * RotationZ(60) * vec4(0.0f, rm, 0.0f, 0.0f)));
            }
        }
        return true;
    }
    else {
        for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
            Sphere * s = new Sphere(childRadiusRatio, materials[i % 6]);
            parent->AddChild(s);
            int newLevels = levels - 1;
            CreateSphereLevels(s, (childRadiusRatio / 3), newLevels, materials);
            float rm = parent->GetRadius() + s->GetRadius();
            if (i == 0)
                s->SetPosition(vec3(0.0f, rm, 0.0f));
            if (i >= 1 && i < 6)
                s->SetPosition(vec3(RotationY(60 * i) * vec4(0.0f, rm, 0.0f, 0.0f)));
            if (i == 1 || i == 3 || i == 5) {
                Sphere * sn = new Sphere(childRadiusRatio, materials[i]);
                parent->AddChild(sn);
                CreateSphereLevels(sn, (childRadiusRatio / 3), newLevels, materials);
                sn->SetPosition(vec3(RotationY(60 * i) * RotationZ(60) * vec4(0.0f, rm, 0.0f, 0.0f)));
            }
        }
    }
    return true;

换句话说,您想要一种方法将您的子球体指向父球体。

通过从父项中减去子项的位置(以获得指向父项中心的Y轴)来计算子项的新Y轴方向并对其进行标准化。通过将新的Y轴向量与现有的Z轴向量(在左手系统中)交叉来计算新的X轴,注意处理它们指向相同方向或彼此完全相反的情况(可能正规化以移除错误)。然后将这个新的X轴向量与新的Y轴向量交叉以获得新的Z轴向量。将其存储在孩子的方向矩阵中。
