Hi everyone,

My needing is to use a ray tracing as simulation program of the scenario of
road and object illuminated from car headlamps.

I produce photometric measurement machines and can measure the map of
illumination of an headlamp. The needing is to use the map as imput of a
scenario program.

Can Pov-Ray help me in this task?



Regards

I'm not exactly sure what you are looking for, but I think you would need to use
photons for that. If you're looking for a scene with a car that has useable
headlamps, you might want to try the car I posted to
http://news.povray.org/povray.binaries.scene-files/22093/ . You will need to
change the following line of code to see the head-lights on:

You will need these files:
'NekCar_F15.pov' (14 KB)
'Car_F15.inc' (79 KB)

Then in 'NekCar_F15.pov' in the following lines :
#if (Views=1)
        CarF15 (1, y*-50 , <1.5,1.2,15>, -20,0,1)     // main  REM : CarF15 (1,
y*-50 , <1.5,1.2,15>, -20)
#end

make this change:
CarF15 (1, y*-50 , <1.5,1.2,15>, -20,1,1)

then render with +qr in the command-line.

Note: you will need some patience with the rendering... ;)
