<h1>[name]</h1>

<p class="desc">
|
|
A ray that emits from an origin in a certain direction. This is used by the
|
|
[page:Raycaster] to assist with [link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_casting raycasting].
|
|
Raycasting is used for mouse picking (working out what objects in the 3D space the mouse is over) amongst
|
|
other things.
