openalea.phenomenal.mesh.routines.normals(vertices, faces)[source]

Compute normal of each faces

Parameters:
  • vertices ([(x, y, z), ...]) – Spatial coordinates for unique mesh vertices.

  • faces ([(V1, V2, V3), ...]) – Define triangular faces via referencing vertex indices from vertices. This algorithm specifically outputs triangles, so each face has exactly three indices

Returns:

out – List of vector direction of the normal in the same order that faces

Return type:

[(x, y, z), …]
