然后通过…找到交点。 堵塞: P = E + t * d 这是一个参数方程 Px = Ex + tdx Py = Ey + tdy 成 (x - h)2 + (y - k)2 = r2 (h,k) =圆心。

注意:我们在这里将问题简化为2D，我们得到的解决方案也适用于3D

得到:

Expand x2 - 2xh + h2 + y2 - 2yk + k2 - r2 = 0 Plug x = ex + tdx y = ey + tdy ( ex + tdx )2 - 2( ex + tdx )h + h2 + ( ey + tdy )2 - 2( ey + tdy )k + k2 - r2 = 0 Explode ex2 + 2extdx + t2dx2 - 2exh - 2tdxh + h2 + ey2 + 2eytdy + t2dy2 - 2eyk - 2tdyk + k2 - r2 = 0 Group t2( dx2 + dy2 ) + 2t( exdx + eydy - dxh - dyk ) + ex2 + ey2 - 2exh - 2eyk + h2 + k2 - r2 = 0 Finally, t2( d · d ) + 2t( e · d - d · c ) + e · e - 2( e · c ) + c · c - r2 = 0 Where d is the vector d and · is the dot product. And then, t2( d · d ) + 2t( d · ( e - c ) ) + ( e - c ) · ( e - c ) - r2 = 0 Letting f = e - c t2( d · d ) + 2t( d · f ) + f · f - r2 = 0

所以我们得到: T2 *(d·d) + 2t*(f·d) + (f·f - r2) = 0

求解二次方程:

float a = d.Dot( d ) ;
float b = 2*f.Dot( d ) ;
float c = f.Dot( f ) - r*r ;

float discriminant = b*b-4*a*c;
if( discriminant < 0 )
{
  // no intersection
}
else
{
  // ray didn't totally miss sphere,
  // so there is a solution to
  // the equation.
  
  discriminant = sqrt( discriminant );

  // either solution may be on or off the ray so need to test both
  // t1 is always the smaller value, because BOTH discriminant and
  // a are nonnegative.
  float t1 = (-b - discriminant)/(2*a);
  float t2 = (-b + discriminant)/(2*a);

  // 3x HIT cases:

  // FallShort (t1>1,t2>1), Past (t1<0,t2<0), CompletelyInside(t1<0, t2>1)
  
  if( t1 >= 0 && t1 <= 1 )
  {
    // t1 is the intersection, and it's closer than t2
    // (since t1 uses -b - discriminant)
    // Impale, Poke
    return true ;
  }

  // here t1 didn't intersect so we are either started
  // inside the sphere or completely past it
  if( t2 >= 0 && t2 <= 1 )
  {
    // ExitWound
    return true ;
  }
  
  // no intn: FallShort, Past, CompletelyInside
  return false ;
}

也许有另一种方法来解决这个问题，使用坐标系的旋转。

通常，如果一个线段是水平的或垂直的，这意味着平行于x轴或y轴，交点的求解很容易，因为我们已经知道交点的一个坐标，如果有的话。剩下的显然是用圆的方程找到另一个坐标。

受此启发，我们可以利用坐标系旋转，使一个轴的方向与线段的方向重合。

让我们以圆x^2+y^2=1和线段P1-P2为例，P1(-1.5,0.5)和P2(-0.5，-0.5)在x-y系统中。下面的方程提醒你旋转的原理，其中是逆时针方向的角度，x'-y'是旋转后的方程组:

x'=x*cos () + y*sin () y' = - x*sin () + y*cos ()

和反向

X = X ' * cos - y' * sin Y = x' * sin + Y ' * cos

考虑P1-P2方向(用-x表示为45°)，我们可以取=45°。将第二个旋转方程转化为x-y系统中的圆方程:x^2+y^2=1，经过简单的运算，我们得到x'-y'系统中的“相同”方程:x'^2+y'^2=1。

利用第一个旋转方程=> P1(-根号(2)/2，根号(2))，P2(-根号(2)/ 2,0)，线段端点变成x'-y'系统。

假设交点为p，在x'-y'中，Px = -根号2 /2。使用新的圆方程，我们得到Py = +根号(2)/2。将P转换成原始的x-y系统，最终得到P(-1,0)

为了实现这个数值，我们可以先看看线段的方向:水平，垂直或不垂直。如果它属于前两种情况，很简单。如果是最后一种情况，应用上述算法。

为了判断是否有交集，我们可以将解与端点坐标进行比较，看看它们之间是否有一个根。

我相信只要我们有了它的方程，这个方法也可以应用于其他曲线。唯一的缺点是，我们应该在x'-y'坐标系下解方程，这可能很难。
