Distribute Points in Volume#
The Distribute Points in Volume node creates points inside of volume grids. The node has two basic modes of operation: distributing points randomly, or in a regular grid. Both methods operate on all of the float grids in the volume.
Inputs#
- Volume
Standard volume geometry input.
- Density
Number of points to sample per unit volume.
- Spacing
Spacing between grid points.
- Threshold
Minimum value of a volume cell to contain a grid point
Properties#
- Distribution Method
- Random:
Distribute points randomly inside of the volume. The local point count is implicitly defined as a product of the global from the Density input and the local voxel value. This method creates a distribution that is not stable as the input volume deforms.
- Grid:
Distribute the points in a grid pattern inside of the volume. At each grid point, the voxel value is used to determine whether to add a point.
Outputs#
- Points
Standard point cloud geometry output.
