aframe-normal-material v1.0.0

A-Frame VR normal-material Component

A-Frame VR component for using the THREE.MeshNormalMaterial as a material on a component. The MeshNormalMaterial is a material that maps the normal vectors to the RGB colors.

It currently has all the defaults for the material as defined in the Three.js Docs.

Installation

Using NPM

npm install aframe-normal-material

require('aframe-normal-material')

I don't want to install a component for this - no problem

AFRAME.registerComponent('normal-material', {

	multiple: true,

  init: function (){
    var material = new THREE.MeshNormalMaterial();
    var geometry = this.el.getObject3D('mesh').geometry;
    this.el.setObject3D('mesh', new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material));
  },

  remove: function(){
    this.el.removeObject3D('mesh');
  }

});
