Matlab Stl How To Actually Set

However, although I have had success importing and rendering the.stl files in matlab, I am having trouble figuring out how to actually set the position of these objects in a 3D space, as this will be extremely necessary in creating the world.

Matlab Stl Code To Import

This is the current code to import an apple.stl file by running renderSTL(Apple.stl) with the function below.

AmbientStrength, 0.15); Add a camera light, and tone down the specular highlighting camlight( headlight ); material( dull ); Fix the axes scaling, and set a nice view angle axis( image ); view(-135 35); end.

However, you can work around this by breaking the triangulation down into two separate variables: one for triangulation.Points and one for triangulation.ConnectivityList.

Triangulation.ConnectivityList contains information about which vertices form triangles, and will be left alone to preserve the original object.

For example, if you wanted to shift your fv triangulation by 5 units in the x-direction: P fv.Points; access the vertex data from triangulation C fv.ConnectivityList; access the connectivity data from triangulation P(:,1) P(:,1) 5; add 5 to each vertexs x value fv triangulation(C, P); Combine both components back into a triangulation variable There might be a more concise way to do this, but I hope this helps.

It appears you can use stlwrite to readily convert vertice and face data or X,Y 2D delaunay triangulated graphs to stl files however, since I only have coordinate data X,Y,Z I cannot convert the delaunay triangulated object to an stl file because the delaunay functions convert it into tetrahedron instead of a 3D surface.

Is there any solution to generate a surface from XYZ coordinate data and export out as an STL file I cannot seem to find a solution unless there is already facet and vertice data.

Edit: Looks like boundary facets can give me what Im looking for Current implementation X table(:,1) Y table(:,2) Z table(:,3) tri delaunaytriangulation(X,Y,Z); stlwrite(tri, filename.stl,ascii).

When I try to plot it as an stl, the faces are very incorrect however the coordinate data is correct tri delaunay(X,Y,Z); stlPlot(dataTable,tri, stlplot ).

Anyway, your call tri delaunay(X,Y,Z); Creates a delaunay triangulation with 3d simplexes, e.g.

I also dont quite understand the nodes (3 vs 4) and faces(connectivity lists) and how the stl builds from these lists.
