VECTOR CROSS

Computes the cross product of two 3-component vectors, returning a third vector orthogonal to both inputs. Use this worker whenever you need a surface normal, torque axis, or any other operation that requires the vector (×) product of two spatial vectors.

When to use

Classification: process.

Tagged: 3d, cross_product, linear_algebra, math, transformation, vector.

Inputs

Label ID Type Default Required Description
Vector 1 vector1 vector   First 3-component input vector (e.g. [x, y, z]); forms the left-hand operand of the cross product.
Vector 2 vector2 vector   Second 3-component input vector (e.g. [x, y, z]); forms the right-hand operand of the cross product.

Outputs

Label ID Type Description
vector_cross_output_1 vector_cross_output_1 vector Resulting 3-component vector orthogonal to both inputs, computed as vector1 × vector2; magnitude equals /vector1//vector2/sin(θ).
