WasmGPU.createTransform().rotateY

WasmGPU.createTransform().rotateY¶

Summary¶

WasmGPU.createTransform().rotateY applies an incremental local rotation around the Y axis. This is a common operation for yaw behavior and orbital motion. The method composes and normalizes quaternion state for numerical stability. Angles are in radians.

Syntax¶

WasmGPU.createTransform().rotateY(angle: number): this
const result = transform.rotateY(angle);

Parameters¶

Name	Type	Required	Description
`angle`	`number`	Yes	Incremental rotation around Y axis in radians.

Returns¶

this - Returns the same transform after rotation.

Example¶

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

const satellite = wgpu.createTransform();
for (let i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
    satellite.rotateY(Math.PI / 16);
}
console.log(satellite.rotation);
