Detailed Description

The CoordinateDeformer uses a H3DFunctionNode to determine the deformation.

The distanceToDepth field specifies a function from the distance from the point of contact to the depth of the deformation. The depth is defined as a float 0 is no deformation at all, and 1 will result in a deformation that is as deep as penetration depth of the surface (i.e. the distance the haptics device has penetrated the surface.

The plasticity field defines the plasticity. 0 means that the deformation is non-plastic (resting points will not be changed) and 1 means that it is fully plasting (resting points will be the same as deformed points)

auto_ptr< SFFunctionNode > H3D::CoordinateDeformer::distanceToDepth

The distanceToDepth field specifies a function from the distance from the point of contact to the depth of the deformation. The depth is defined as a float 0 is no deformation at all, and 1 will result in a deformation that is as deep as penetration depth of the surface (i.e. the distance the haptics device has penetrated the surface. Access type: inputOutput

auto_ptr< SFFloat > H3D::CoordinateDeformer::plasticity

The plasticity field defines the plasticity. 0 means that the deformation is non-plastic (resting points will not be changed) and 1 means that it is fully plasting (resting points will be the same as deformed points) Access type: inputOutput Default value: 0.0
