- class trimesh.scene.lighting.DirectionalLight(name=None, color=None, intensity=None, radius=None)
Bases:
Light
Directional lights are light sources that act as though they are infinitely far away and emit light in the direction of the local -z axis. This light type inherits the orientation of the node that it belongs to; position and scale are ignored except for their effect on the inherited node orientation. Because it is at an infinite distance, the light is not attenuated. Its intensity is defined in lumens per metre squared, or lux (lm/m2).
- name
Name of the light.
- Type
str, optional
- color
RGBA value for the light’s color in linear space.
- Type
(4,) unit8
- intensity
Brightness of light. The units that this is defined in depend on the type of light. point and spot lights use luminous intensity in candela (lm/sr), while directional lights use illuminance in lux (lm/m2).
- Type
float
- radius
Cutoff distance at which light’s intensity may be considered to have reached zero. Supported only for point and spot lights, must be > 0. If None, the radius is assumed to be infinite.

- class trimesh.scene.lighting.PointLight(name=None, color=None, intensity=None, radius=None)
Bases:
Light
Point lights emit light in all directions from their position in space; rotation and scale are ignored except for their effect on the inherited node position. The brightness of the light attenuates in a physically correct manner as distance increases from the light’s position (i.e. brightness goes like the inverse square of the distance). Point light intensity is defined in candela, which is lumens per square radian (lm/sr).

Bases:
Light
Spot lights emit light in a cone in the direction of the local -z axis. The angle and falloff of the cone is defined using two numbers, the innerConeAngle and outerConeAngle. As with point lights, the brightness also attenuates in a physically correct manner as distance increases from the light’s position (i.e. brightness goes like the inverse square of the distance). Spot light intensity refers to the brightness inside the innerConeAngle (and at the location of the light) and is defined in candela, which is lumens per square radian (lm/sr). A spot light’s position and orientation are inherited from its node transform. Inherited scale does not affect cone shape, and is ignored except for its effect on position and orientation.
