elevation_normals — DRIVE walkterrain op

• Data kinds: depth → normalmap

• Call: import fullseye as fs; fs.ledger.elevation_normals(grid, cell: 'float' = 0.05) (to call the implementation directly, import terrain; terrain.elevation_normals(grid, cell: 'float' = 0.05); from the registry, opsdrive.get("elevation_normals"))

• GPU: none (CPU reference implementation only)

Usage

Unit up-pointing normals (H, W, 3) of an elevation map — ledger door of surface_normals.

> The detailed description below is the original text — the summary and the headings are translated.

地形の高さ図の単位法線(+z 向き)。中身は surface_normals と同じ。台帳の名前を変えたのは、surface_normals が 3-D の測光(ops3d)の op 名で、terrain_surface_normals は facade の正式名(別名の表 opnames)として既に使われているため(op 名は全体で 1 つ)。空の入力(grid が 0 要素)は (0, W, 3) の空の配列を返す(理由: 観測の無い地図は法線も無く、形だけを保つ)。
