Installation

This class requires the Cesium.js library. You need to install Cesium.js and import the SensorShadow class into your project.

Please refer to the official Cesium.js Installation Guide for more information on how to install and set up Cesium.js.

Usage

To create a new SensorShadow instance, you need a reference to the Cesium viewer instance and an optional configuration object. The configuration object can include various properties like cameraPosition, viewPosition, viewAreaColor, shadowAreaColor, alpha, frustum, size and depthBias.

Below is an example of how to create a new SensorShadow instance:

let sensorShadow = new SensorShadow(viewer, {
  cameraPosition: new Cartesian3(0, 0, 0),
  viewPosition: new Cartesian3(1, 1, 1),
  viewAreaColor: new Color(0, 1, 0),
  shadowAreaColor: new Color(1, 0, 0),
  alpha: 0.5,
  frustum: true,
  size: 512,
});
