WasmGPU.math.mat4.perspective

WasmGPU.math.mat4.perspective¶

Summary¶

WasmGPU.math.mat4.perspective creates a perspective projection matrix from camera frustum parameters. Use it for pinhole-camera rendering in 3D scenes.

Syntax¶

WasmGPU.math.mat4.perspective(fovY: number, aspect: number, near: number, far: number): number[]
const result = wgpu.math.mat4.perspective(fovY, aspect, near, far);

Parameters¶

Name	Type	Required	Description
`fovY`	`number`	Yes	Vertical field of view in radians.
`aspect`	`number`	Yes	Viewport aspect ratio (`width / height`).
`near`	`number`	Yes	Near clipping plane distance; must be positive.
`far`	`number`	Yes	Far clipping plane distance; must be greater than `near`.

Returns¶

number[] - New 4x4 matrix as a 16-number column-major array.

Type Details¶

type Mat4 = number[]; // expected length: 16 (4x4, column-major)

Example¶

const canvas = document.querySelector("canvas");
const wgpu = await WasmGPU.create(canvas);

const fovY = Math.PI / 3;
const aspect = canvas.width / canvas.height;
const near = 0.1;
const far = 100.0;
const result = wgpu.math.mat4.perspective(fovY, aspect, near, far);
console.log(result);
