Unigine::LightPlanarProbe Class

Header: #include <UnigineLights.h>
Inherits from: Light

This class is used to create and manage Planar Reflection Probes the implement planar reflections functionality (used to create mirrors etc.). The probe grabs the reflection, and requires a surface to project the reflection onto. There is a set of parameters enabling you to tweak the look of your reflections and optimize rendering load (by limiting visibility distance, reflections rendering distance, etc.).

Usage Example#

In the example below a Planar Reflection Probe is created along with a plane primitive. The surface of the primitive serves for projecting the reflection grabbed by the probe (the reflection is projected only within the area of intersection of the probe and the surface). Some parameters of the material assigned to the reflecting surface are also tweaked in order to provide the desired effect and match roughness range (which enables rendering of reflections depending on surface roughness).

Copy the source code below and paste it to the AppWorldLogic.cpp file of your project.

Source code (C++)
// AppWorldLogic.cpp

#include "AppWorldLogic.h"

#include <UniginePrimitives.h>
#include <UnigineObjects.h>
#include <UnigineLights.h>
using namespace Unigine;

// declaring a reflecting plane and a planar reflection probe
Unigine::ObjectMeshDynamicPtr plane;
Unigine::LightPlanarProbePtr planar_probe;

/* .. */

int AppWorldLogic::init() {

	// creating a reflecting plane, onto which the reflection is to be projected by the probe
	plane = Primitives::createPlane(20, 20, 1);
	
	// creating a planar reflection probe of the same size
	LightPlanarProbePtr planar_probe = LightPlanarProbe::create();
	planar_probe->setProjectionSize(Math::vec3(20, 20, 1));
	plane->rotate(-90.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
	plane->translate(0.0f, 5.0f, -5.0f);

	// putting the planar probe so that it covers the reflecting surface
	planar_probe->setTransform(plane->getTransform());

	// inheriting a new material from the one assigned
	// to the surface by default in order to tweak it
	// and set metalness and roughness values (metallic and polished)
	MaterialPtr plane_mat = plane->getMaterialInherit(0);
	plane_mat->setParameterFloat("metalness", 1.0f);
	plane_mat->setParameterFloat("roughness", 0.0f);

	// set the distance from the camera, up to which 
	// the planar reflection will be visible
	planar_probe->setVisibleDistance(5.0f);

	return 1;
}
