Direction

new Cesium.Direction(options)

A direction defined by clock and cone angles, used for custom sensor volumes.
Name Type Description
options object optional Object with the following properties:
Name Type Default Description
clock number 0.0 optional The clock angle in radians.
cone number 0.0 optional The cone angle in radians.

Members

The clock angle in radians measured from the positive x-axis toward the positive y-axis.
Default Value: 0.0
The cone angle in radians measured from the positive z-axis toward the negative z-axis.
Default Value: 0.0

Methods

static Cesium.Direction.clone(direction, result)Direction

Duplicates a Direction instance.
Name Type Description
direction Direction The Direction to duplicate.
result Direction optional The object onto which to store the result.
Returns:
The modified result parameter or a new Direction instance if one was not provided.

static Cesium.Direction.equals(left, right)boolean

Compares the provided Directions componentwise and returns true if they are equal, false otherwise.
Name Type Description
left Direction optional The first Direction.
right Direction optional The second Direction.
Returns:
true if left and right are equal, false otherwise.

static Cesium.Direction.fromCartesian(cartesian, result)Direction

Creates a Direction from a Cartesian3 unit vector.
Name Type Description
cartesian Cartesian3 The Cartesian3 unit vector.
result Direction optional The object onto which to store the result.
Returns:
The Direction representation of the Cartesian3.

static Cesium.Direction.fromClockCone(clock, cone, result)Direction

Creates a Direction from clock and cone angles.
Name Type Description
clock number The clock angle in radians.
cone number The cone angle in radians.
result Direction optional The object onto which to store the result.
Returns:
The modified result parameter or a new Direction instance if one was not provided.

static Cesium.Direction.toCartesian(direction, result)Cartesian3

Converts this direction to a unit Cartesian3 vector.
Name Type Description
direction Direction The direction to convert.
result Cartesian3 optional The object onto which to store the result.
Returns:
The Cartesian3 representation of this direction.
