VTK笔记——寻找最近点(vtkCellLocator)在Mesh上找最近点

原文链接https://blog.csdn.net/minmindianzi/article/details/103474941

当你看到找最近点时，可能会立刻想到在一堆点中，通过距离找出最近的点，没错，这是一种寻找最近点的需求。今天我们要说的是另一种寻找最近点的需求，就是在Mesh上找最近点，这个点不一定是Mesh的顶点。
多边形网格是由很多个小的单元组成，类似于这样：

我们拿其中一个单元格cell来简化模型，
空间中有一个点p，p到cell的最近点要怎么求得？
如果我们把cell想象成一个平面，那就变成了，p到平面ABCD的投影，也是从p点做垂线，求垂线与平面的交点。
没错，这就是vtkCellLocator的基本思想。

vtkCellLocator
vtkCellLocator本身是一个octree。典型的用法就是求最近的单元或者点。

之前点对点寻找效果不是想要的，如下

现在用点到面寻找的结果就很好，如下
