GeometryToTexture Op

Ops.Gl.Meshes.GeometryToTexture

Op author: pandur

Convert vertices of a geometry to a data texture

Once triggered this operator converts a given geometry to an HDR texture where every pixel contains XYZ position data of the given geometry, represented with RGB values.

Inputs

Render (Trigger)

Trigger the op

Geometry (Object)

Tex Size (integer /Number)

set the dimension of the square texture

Texture settings

filter index (integer /Number)

Pick a filter mode with an integer

wrap index (integer /Number)

Pick a wrap mode with an integer

Randomize (boolean /Number)

Outputs

Next (Trigger)

Trigger out

Total Vertices (Number)

Texture (Object)

Texture out

Geometry to Texture

in this example we modify our cube geometry in realtime, and visualize the positional data as a texture to demonstrate how our geometry data is changing.

each pixel in this 25x25 pixel texture represents a position of a vertex from our demo cube. See how it smoothly changes from red to green to blue and everything in between?

you can further manipulate this texture with an imagecompose or plug it into a pointcloud.
