Houdini 21.0 Nodes Geometry nodes

Extract Contours geometry node

Extracts the contour edges of the input geometry as viewed from a perspective camera

This node allows you to compute the contours of the input geometry in object space, when viewed from the given camera.

This SOP works with geometry in which each edge is shared by at most 2 faces.

Parameters

Group

The group of polygons from which countour edges will be extracted.

Camera

The camera used to compute the contour edges.

Frustum Culling

When enabled, edges in the input geometry outside the given camera furstum are not included in the extraction.

Normal Tolerance

The threshold angle used to determine if an edge belongs to the contour outline of the input geometry.

Mode

Preset to Generate Curves. Defines whether the output of the node should be curves or an edge group containing all contour edges.
