Trouble using diffuse function
显示 更早的评论
Hello, I'm trying to use the diffuse() function to simulate Lamburtian reflectance off a surface and the help page leaves a bit to be desired. I'm having several errors running the function and was just hoping someone could provide me with an example use of the function so that I can confirm the syntax I'm using is correct.
My end goal is to calculate the reflected light off the surface and compare it to the light that continues past the target and reflects off a second surface. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The structure is:
R = diffuse(Nx,Ny,Nz,S)
The output R is defined with Lambert's Law by R = cos(psi) where psi is the angle between the surface normal and light source.
If you have a surface on the (x,y) plan, the normal vector is [Nx,Ny,Nz] = [0,0,1].
S = [Theta Phi] is the direction vector of the light source in spherical coordinates (in degrees).
For example
S = [10 45];
R = diffuse(0,0,1,S)
You can also define S in the (x,y,z) coordinates. That would give, to have the same output:
S = [sind(45)*cosd(10) sind(45)*sind(10) cosd(45)];
R = diffuse(0,0,1,S)
