+ point) and points in a direction (a unit 3D vector). Rays can intersect
+ a variety of other computer graphics objects, such as planes, triangles,
+ spheres, 3D meshes, etc. These intersections can be tested with the
+ Intersect...() methods. The Ray can also be transformed by a Matrix4.

+ // Create a pick ray from the mouse position
+ void MyGraphicsApp::OnLeftMouseDown(const Point2 &pos) {
+ Point2 mouse_xy = PixelsToNormalizedDeviceCoords(pos);
+ float mouse_z = ReadZValueAtPixel(pos);
+ Point3 mouse_3d = GfxMath::ScreenToNearPlane(view_matrix, proj_matrix, mouse_xy, mouse_z);
+ Matrix4 camera_matrix = view_matrix.Inverse();
+ Point3 eye = camera_matrix.ColumnToPoint3(3);
+
+ Ray pick_ray(eye, mouse_3d - eye);
+
+ // check to see if the ray intersects a sphere
+ float t;
+ Point3 p;
