Classes

BaseInteractionModel(parent_surface, ...[, ...])

Abstract base class for ray-surface interaction models.

class BaseInteractionModel(parent_surface: Surface | None, is_reflective: bool, coating: BaseCoating | None = None, bsdf: BaseBSDF | None = None)[source]#

Abstract base class for ray-surface interaction models.

abstractmethod flip()[source]#: Flip the interaction model.

classmethod from_dict(data, parent_surface)[source]#: Creates an interaction model from a dictionary representation.

property geometry#

abstractmethod interact_paraxial_rays(rays: ParaxialRays) → ParaxialRays[source]#: Interact with paraxial rays.

abstractmethod interact_real_rays(rays: RealRays) → RealRays[source]#: Interact with real rays.

property material_post#

property material_pre#

to_dict()[source]#: Returns a dictionary representation of the interaction model.
