一、向量积(外积、叉积)与数量积(内积、点积)

原理

叉积 http://baike.baidu.com/view/973423.htm

点积 http://baike.baidu.com/view/2744555.htm

两向量的叉乘(叉积、外积)仍然是一个向量:

  1. 这个向量的大小为原两向量模的乘积乘以其夹角的正弦值,也就是说在数值上等于两向量平移后形成的平行四边形的面积。
  2. 这个向量的方向是与两个原向量都垂直的方向,其指向用右手准则来判断。

右手法则

叉乘右手法则:
当右手的四指从a以不超过180度的转角转向b时,竖起的大拇指指向是c的方向。

返回值范围

点积(数量积)返回值范围:

两个普通向量点积返回值可以是无限大或无限小,两个单位向量点积返回值的范围大小:(-1, 1)。

以UE4数学函数为例,FVector::DotProduct(V1, V2) / (V1.Size() * V2.Size())等价于FVector::DotProduct(V1.GetSafeNormal(), V2.GetSafeNormal())

差积(向量积)返回值范围:

向量积|c| = |a x b| = |a| |b| sin<a, b>
即c的长度在数值上等于以a,b,夹角为θ组成的平行四边形的面积。
而c的方向垂直于a与b所决定的平面,c的指向按右手定则从a转向b来确定。

UE4中的点积、叉积函数

UE4的叉积(向量积、外积)函数:

FVector::CrossProduct()

UE4的点积(数量积、内积)函数:

FVector::DotProduct()

具体代码示例

FVector V1(100.f, 0.f, 0.f);
FVector V2 = FRotator(0.f, 30.f, 0.f).RotateVector(V1);
FVector V3 = FRotator(0.f, 45.f, 0.f).RotateVector(V1);
FVector V4 = FRotator(0.f, 60.f, 0.f).RotateVector(V1);

float d1 = FVector::DotProduct(V2, V3);
float d2 = FVector::DotProduct(V3, V2);
float d3 = FVector::DotProduct(V3, V4);
float d4 = FVector::DotProduct(V2, V4);

其中各个值为:

V2 = (86.6f, 50.f, 0.f)
V3 = (70.7f, 70.7f, 0.f)
V4 = (50.f, 86.6f, 0.f)
d1 = 9659.25781
d2 = 9659.25781
d3 = 9659.25781
d4 = 8660.25391

二、已知方向向量,求该向量与空间坐标轴的夹角

原始的数学公式不列举了,需要的话找个Math库看下源码。这里以UE4的API说明:

情况一:已知两个坐标点,求连线与空间坐标的夹角

已知空间中两个点FVector V1, V2,方向向量V3 = V2 - V1,求V3与空间坐标的夹角:

FRotator R = (V2 - V1).Rotation();
情况二:单个向量与世界坐标的夹角

已知方向向量Vector V1,求V1与空间坐标轴的夹角Rotator R1:即将Vector转换为Rotator

FRotator R1 = FVector(100.f, 100.f, 0.f).Rotation();
FRotator R2 = FVector(-100.f, -100.f, 0.f).Rotation();
FRotator R3 = FVector(100.f, 0.f, 0.f).Rotation();
FRotator R4 = FVector(0.f, 100.f, 0.f).Rotation();

结果分别是:

R1 = {Pitch=0.0 Yaw=45.0 Roll=0.0 }
R2 = {Pitch=0.0 Yaw=-135.0 Roll=0.0 }
R3 = {Pitch=0.0 Yaw=0.0 Roll=0.0 }
R4 = {Pitch=0.0 Yaw=90.0 Roll=0.0 }

FVector::Rotation()函数的内部实现(局部):

FRotator R;

// Find yaw.
R.Yaw = FMath::Atan2(Y,X) * (180.f / PI);

// Find pitch.
R.Pitch = FMath::Atan2(Z,FMath::Sqrt(X*X+Y*Y)) * (180.f / PI);

// Find roll.
R.Roll = 0;

return R;
情况三:两个空间向量的夹角度数
FVector V1 = ...;
FVector V2 = ...;
float Angle = FMath::RadiansToDegrees(acosf(FVector::DotProduct(V1.GetSafeNormal(), V2.GetSafeNormal())));

运算结果值的范围为:0到180。

求点积时的两个向量一定要是单位向量,否则计算结果会大于Pi(正常范围是0到Pi)。

三、基于某点向某方向上投射指定距离后的坐标计算

代码:

float Len = FMath::Sqrt(100 * 100 + 100 * 100);
FVector Loc = FVector(100.f, 100.f, 0.f) + FRotator(0.f, 45.f, 0.f).Vector() * Len;

结果:

Loc = {X=200.f, Y=200.f, Z=0.f}

FRotator::Vector()对应的蓝图函数为GetRotationXVector

=================================

例子2:

float Len = FMath::Sqrt(100 * 100 + 100 * 100);
FVector Loc1 = FVector(0.f, 0.f, 0.f) + FRotator(0.f, 45.f, 0.f).Vector() * Len;
FVector Loc2 = FVector(0.f, 0.f, 0.f) + FRotator(0.f, 135.f, 0.f).Vector() * Len;
FVector Loc3 = FVector(0.f, 0.f, 0.f) + FRotator(0.f, 225.f, 0.f).Vector() * Len;
FVector Loc4 = FVector(0.f, 0.f, 0.f) + FRotator(0.f, 315.f, 0.f).Vector() * Len;

结果:

Loc1 = {X=100.f, Y=100.f, Z=0.f}
Loc2 = {X=-100.f, Y=100.f, Z=0.f}
Loc3 = {X=-100.f, Y=-100.f, Z=0.f}
Loc4 = {X=100.f, Y=-100.f, Z=0.f}

四、如何检测某个点是否在多边形内部或者直线上

点在多边形内的判别方法
int pnpoly(int nvert, float *vertx, float *verty, float testx, float testy)
{
    int i, j, c = 0;
    for (i = 0, j = nvert-1; i < nvert; j = i++) 
    {
        if (((verty[i] > testy) != (verty[j] > testy)) &&
            (testx < (vertx[j] - vertx[i]) * (testy - verty[i]) / (verty[j] - verty[i]) + vertx[i]) )
        {
            c = !c;
        }
    }
    return c;
}

Arguments

  • nvert: Number of vertices in the polygon. Whether to repeat the first vertex at the end has been discussed in the article referred above.
  • vertx, verty: Arrays containing the x- and y-coordinates of the polygon’s vertices.
  • testx, testy: X- and y-coordinate of the test point.

点在两点之间的直线上的判别方法
bool isLieOnLine()
{
    dxc = currPoint.x - point1.x;
    dyc = currPoint.y - point1.y;

    dxl = point2.x - point1.x;
    dyl = point2.y - point1.y;

    //point lies on the line if and only if (dxc * dyl - dyc * dxl) is equal to zero.
    bool isCrossLine = dxc * dyl - dyc * dxl == 0;

    if(isCrossLine)
    {
        if (abs(dxl) >= abs(dyl))
          return dxl > 0 ? 
            point1.x <= currPoint.x && currPoint.x <= point2.x :
            point2.x <= currPoint.x && currPoint.x <= point1.x;
        else
          return dyl > 0 ? 
            point1.y <= currPoint.y && currPoint.y <= point2.y :
            point2.y <= currPoint.y && currPoint.y <= point1.y;
    }

    return false;
}

五、两个旋转矩阵(Rotation Matrix)相乘(Multiply)的几何意义

讲之前,先说下如果两个Rotation相加的意义,比如:

FRotator Rot1(0.f, 90.f, 0.f);
FRotator Rot2(90.f,0.f, 0.f);
FRotator Result = Rot1 + Rot2;

得到的结果FRotator Result(90.f, 90.f, 0.f),其意义是: 物体相对空间坐标原点的Rotation为(90.f, 90.f, 0.f),很好理解。

如果两个Rotation转换为Martix并相乘,比如:

FRotator Rot1(0.f, 90.f, 0.f);
FRotator Rot2(90.f,0.f, 0.f);
FRotator Result =( FRotationMatrix(Rot1) * FRotationMatrix(Rot2)).Rotator();

得到的结果FRotator Result(0.f, 90.f, 90.f),其意义是: 先将物体作Rot1旋转,即:Yaw方向(水平平面)旋转90度,然后再假设该物体相对坐标轴原点的旋转量为(0, 0, 0),即没有作任何旋转,但实际Rotation相对坐标轴原点为(0, 90, 0);然后再将物体进行Rot2旋转,即Pitch方向(垂直于(90, 0, 0)方向的平面)侧翻90度,因为侧翻90度前假设物体的Rotation是(0, 0, 0),所以侧翻时所在的平面不再是Yaw=90的平面(垂直于(0, 90, 0)方向),而是Yaw=0的平面(垂直于(90, 0, 0)方向)。没做相关配图,这段话理解起来有点绕,最好用空间思维想象下,可以用手掌比划。

实际应用:

比如空间中有两个物体:A和B,现在要将A旋转至与B相同的朝向,目前只知道A的相对世界坐标的Rotation Rw(90.f,0.f, 0.f)、B相对A(将A的Rotation当做(0, 0, 0))的Rotation Rr(0.f, 90.f, 0.f),求A旋转后的世界坐标Rotation。
此时的计算公式就是:

(FRotationMatrix(Rr) * FRotationMatrix(Rw)).Rotator()

注意:矩阵相乘时,两个乘数的前后位置不同则计算的结果也不同,比如上面例子,如果是( FRotationMatrix(Rot2) * FRotationMatrix(Rot1)).Rotator,则结果是Rotation(90, -90, -180)。

一个典型应用:以UE4为例,当角色移动时,不能将默认MoveForward的实参(比如(1.0, 0.f, 0.f))和MoveRight的实参(比如(0.0, 1.f, 0.f))传递给AddMovementInput,因为InputValue需要相对摄像机的朝向来计算,否则当按下W键,期望角色摄像机正对方向移动,但实际是侧向移动。此时就可以通过旋转矩阵相乘来获取当前摄像机朝向方向下的MoveForwardMoveRight方向。

FRotator AMyPlayerController::GetInputRotationInWorld()
{
    FRotator Ret = FRotator::ZeroRotator;
    if (AMyCharacter* Player = Cast<AMyCharacter>(GetPawn()))
    {
        if(UCameraComponent* CameraComp = Player->GetFollowCamera())
        {
            FRotator InputRotLS = FVector(ForwardInputValue, RighInputInputValue, 0.f).Rotation();
            FRotator CameraRotWS = FRotator(0.f, CameraComp->GetComponentRotation().Yaw, 0.f);
            Ret = (FRotationMatrix(InputRotLS) * FRotationMatrix(CameraRotWS)).Rotator();
        }
    }

    return Ret;
}

AStaticMeshActor* TestCube = nullptr;

//throw speed
UPROPERTY(EditDefaultsOnly)
FVector StartForce = FVector(100.f, 100.f, 2000.f);

//gravitational acceleration
float GravityAcclerator = -980.f;

//accumulated movtion time
float AccumulateTime = 0.f;

cpp

void ATestTPGameMode::StartPlay()
{
    Super::StartPlay();

    //finding the Actor in scene.
    for (TActorIterator<AStaticMeshActor> Iter(GetWorld()); Iter; ++Iter)
    {
        if (Iter->GetName() == TEXT("Cube_2"))
        {
            TestCube = *Iter;
            break;
        }
    }
}

void ATestTPGameMode::Tick(float DeltaSeconds)
{
    Super::Tick(DeltaSeconds);

    AccumulateTime += DeltaSeconds;

    //calculate gravitational speed in real time.
    float ZSpeed = GravityAcclerator * AccumulateTime;

    //calculate summation speed of gravitational speed and throw speed.
    FVector CurrSpeed = StartForce + FVector(0.f, 0.f, ZSpeed) ;

    //calculate movement distance in real time.
    FVector MoveDist = CurrSpeed * DeltaSeconds;

    //set relative location.
    TestCube->AddActorWorldOffset(MoveDist, true);
}

七、空间点到直线垂足坐标的解算方法

算法1

原文:https://blog.csdn.net/zhouschina/article/details/14647587

假设空间某点O的坐标为(Xo,Yo,Zo),空间某条直线上两点A和B的坐标为:(X1,Y1,Z1),(X2,Y2,Z2),设点O在直线AB上的垂足为点N,坐标为(Xn,Yn,Zn)。点N坐标解算过程如下: 首先求出下列向量:

   

由向量垂直关系(公式1

       

点N在直线AB上,根据向量共线(公式2):

      

公式2得(公式3):

公式3式代入公式1式,式中只有一个未知数k,整理化简解出k(公式4):

公式4式代入公式3式即得到垂足N的坐标。

二维空间

// 二维空间点到直线的垂足
struct Point

  double x,y;

{
    Point retVal;

    double dx = begin.x - end.x;
    double dy = begin.y - end.y;
    if(abs(dx) < 0.00000001 && abs(dy) < 0.00000001 )
    {
        retVal = begin;
        return retVal;
    }

    double u = (pt.x - begin.x)*(begin.x - end.x) +
        (pt.y - begin.y)*(begin.y - end.y);
    u = u/((dx*dx)+(dy*dy));

    retVal.x = begin.x + u*dx;
    retVal.y = begin.y + u*dy;

    return retVal;
}

// 三维空间点到直线的垂足

{
  double x,y,z;
}
Point GetFootOfPerpendicular(
    const Point &pt,     // 直线外一点
    const Point &begin,  // 直线开始点
    const Point &end)   // 直线结束点
{
    Point retVal;

    double dx = begin.x - end.x;
    double dy = begin.y - end.y;

        (pt.y - begin.y)*(begin.y - end.y) + (pt.z - begin.z)*(begin.z - end.z);
    u = u/((dx*dx)+(dy*dy)+(dz*dz));

    retVal.x = begin.x + u*dx;
    retVal.y = begin.y + u*dy;

八、已知三点求平面方程、平面法向量和点到平面的距离

原文:https://blog.csdn.net/zhouschina/article/details/8784908

已知三点p1(x1,y1,z1),p2(x2,y2,z2),p3(x3,y3,z3),要求确定的平面方程。
关键在于求出平面的一个法向量,为此做向量p1p2(x2-x1,y2-y1,z2-z1), p1p3(x3-x1,y3-y1,z3-z1),平面法线和这两个向量垂直,因此法向量n:

平面方程:

a * (x - x1) + b * (y - y1) + c * (z - z1) = 0;
d = -a * x1 - b * y1 - c * z1;

平面方程2:

a * x + b * y + c * z + d=0;

代码:

//已知3点坐标,求平面ax+by+cz+d=0; 
void get_panel(Point p1, Point p2, Point p3, double &a, double &b, double &c, double &d)
{
    a = ( (p2.y - p1.y) * (p3.z - p1.z) - (p2.z - p1.z) * (p3.y - p1.y) );

    b = ( (p2.z - p1.z) * (p3.x - p1.x) - (p2.x - p1.x) * (p3.z - p1.z) );

    c = ( (p2.x - p1.x) * (p3.y - p1.y) - (p2.y - p1.y) * (p3.x - p1.x) );

    d = ( 0 - (a * p1.x + b * p1.y + c * p1.z) );
}

// 已知三点坐标,求法向量
Vec3 get_Normal(Point p1, Point p2, Point p3)
{
    double a = ( (p2.y - p1.y) * (p3.z - p1.z) - (p2.z - p1.z) * (p3.y - p1.y) );

    double b = ( (p2.z - p1.z) * (p3.x - p1.x) - (p2.x - p1.x) * (p3.z - p1.z) );

    double c = ( (p2.x - p1.x) * (p3.y - p1.y) - (p2.y - p1.y) * (p3.x - p1.x) );

    return Vec3(a, b, c); 
}

//点到平面距离 
double dis_pt2panel(Point pt, double a, double b, double c, double d)
{
    return f_abs(a * pt.x + b * pt.y + c * pt.z + d) / sqrt(a * a + b * b + c * c);
}
