plotHeatMap

pyslm.visualise.plotHeatMap(part, z, exposurePoints, resolution=0.25)

Plots an effective heat map given the exposure points and at a given z position. The heatmap is discretised by summing the energy input of all exposure points onto an image and then capturing the aerial heat input by dividing by the pixel area.

Parameters:
  • part (Part) – The part that as been sliced.

  • z (float) – The layer z-position to slice

  • exposurePoints (ndarray) – (nx3) array of exposure points

  • resolution (float) – resolution to generate the heatmap to process on

Return type:

Tuple[Figure, Axes]
