Create a Honeybee View for an image-based analysis.

Inputs

  • name

Text to set the name for the modifier and to be incorporated into a unique modifier identifier.

  • position [Required]

An point to set the position of the view in 3D space (-vp). This is the focal point of a perspective view or the center of a parallel projection.

  • direction [Required]

A vector for the direction that the veiw is facing (-vd). The length of this vector indicates the focal distance as needed by the pixel depth of field (-pd) in rpict.

  • up_vector

An optional vector to set the vertical direction of the view (-vu). (Default: (0, 0, 1)).

  • view_type

An integer to set the view type (-vt). Choose from the choices below. (Default: 0).

* 0 Perspective (v)

* 1 Hemispherical fisheye (h)

* 2 Parallel (l)

* 3 Cylindrical panorama (c)

* 4 Angular fisheye (a)

* 5 Planisphere [stereographic] projection (s)For more detailed description about view types check rpict manual page (http://radsite.lbl.gov/radiance/man_html/rpict.1.html) 
  • h_angle

A number for the view horizontal size (-vh) in degrees. For a perspective projection (including fisheye views), val is the horizontal field of view. For a parallel projection, val is the view width in world coordinates. (Default: 60).

  • v_angle

A number for the view vertical size (-vv) in degrees. For a perspective projection (including fisheye views), val is the horizontal field of view. For a parallel projection, val is the view width in world coordinates. (Default: 60).

Outputs

  • view

A Honeybee View object that can be used in an view-based recipe.
