Detailed Description

Represents a cloud model.

Provides loading functionality and can also provide a VaoChannel containing the geometry. The channel can then be used as Input for RenderPasses. After the first call of getVaoOutput() the geometry can be removed from the CPU using clearCPU() without affecting the content of the VaoChannel. The VaoChannel will only be updated when clearGPU() was called and the channel is requested again using getVaoOutput().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

EntityCloud::~EntityCloud

(

)

Calls clearGPU() and clearCPU().

Might use OpenGL calls.

Member Function Documentation

RenderPass::VaoChannel & EntityCloud::getVaoOutput

(

)

Returns a VaoChannel containing the geometry.

Returns

The VaoChannel.

bool EntityCloud::load	(	std::string &	file,
		unsigned char	k = 20,
		float	epsilon = 0.0005
	)

Loads a cloud model and converts it to a splat cloud.

Parameters

file	The file name.
k	The parameter for the kNN used during splat generation.
epsilon	A parameter defining the maximum deviation during splat generation.

Returns

true if the model was loaded and converted properly.
