rtcGetGeometryTransform(3)                        Embree Ray Tracing Kernels 4

   NAME

              rtcGetGeometryTransform - returns the interpolated instance
                transformation for the specified time


   SYNOPSIS

              #include <embree4/rtcore.h>

              void rtcGetGeometryTransform(
                RTCGeometry geometry,
                float time,
                enum RTCFormat format,
                void* xfm
              );


   DESCRIPTION
       The rtcGetGeometryTransform function returns the interpolated local to
       world transformation (xfm parameter) of an instance geometry (geometry
       parameter) for a particular time (time parameter in range [0,<?>1]) in
       the specified format (format parameter).

       Possible formats for the returned matrix are:

       o RTC_FORMAT_FLOAT3X4_ROW_MAJOR: The 3x4 float matrix is laid out in
         row-major form.

       o RTC_FORMAT_FLOAT3X4_COLUMN_MAJOR: The 3x4 float matrix is laid out in
         column-major form.

       o RTC_FORMAT_FLOAT4X4_COLUMN_MAJOR: The 3x4 float matrix is laid out in
         column-major form as a 4x4 homogeneous matrix with last row equal to
         (0, 0, 0, 1).

       This function is supposed to be used during rendering, but only
       supported on the CPU and not inside SYCL kernels on the GPU.  Inside a
       SYCL kernel the rtcGetGeometryTransformFromScene function has to get
       used.

   EXIT STATUS
       On failure an error code is set that can be queried using
       rtcGetDeviceError.
