distance3d.distance.plane_to_triangle(plane_point, plane_normal, triangle_points)

Compute the shortest distance between a plane and a triangle.

Parameters:

plane_pointarray, shape (3,)

Point on the plane.

plane_normalarray, shape (3,)

Normal of the plane. We assume unit length.

triangle_pointsarray, shape (3, 3)

Each row contains a point of the triangle (A, B, C).

Returns:

distfloat

The shortest distance between triangle and plane.

closest_point_planearray, shape (3,)

Closest point on plane.

closest_point_trianglearray, shape (3,)

Closest point on triangle.
