Detailed Description

Creates a sphere.

Note:

If left unspecified, the center of the sphere will default to the origin, and the radius of the sphere will default to 0.5 (contained in the unit box ranging from [ -.5, -.5, -.5 ] to [ .5, .5, .5 ]).

sphere corresponds to the underlying Milton class 'Sphere.'

Example usage:

"scene" : {

// declare the same translated, uniformly scaled sphere two different ways

"sphere" : {

"position" : [ 10, 5, 4 ],

"radius" : 8,

},

"transform" : {

"translate" : [ 10, 5, 4 ],

"scale" : [ 16, 16, 16 ],

"sphere" : { },

},

},
