autopdex.geometry.psdf_cylinder

autopdex.geometry.psdf_cylinder(x, x_0, normal, radius, length)

Positive normalized smooth distance function to a cylinder in 3D.

Parameters:

• x (jnp.ndarray) – The point where the distance is evaluated.

• x_0 (jnp.ndarray) – The starting point on the center line of the cylinder.

• normal (jnp.ndarray) – The direction vector of the cylinder.

• radius (float) – The radius of the cylinder.

• length (float) – The length of the cylinder.

Returns:

The positive distance from the point x to the cylinder. Zero outside of the cylinder.

Return type:

float
