如果你找到了圆心(因为它是3D的，我想你是指球体而不是圆)和直线之间的距离，然后检查这个距离是否小于可以做到这一点的半径。

碰撞点显然是直线和球面之间最近的点(当你计算球面和直线之间的距离时，会计算出这个点)

点与线之间的距离: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Point-LineDistance3-Dimensional.html

我发现这个解决方案似乎比其他一些解决方案更容易遵循。

采取:

p1 and p2 as the points for the line, and
c as the center point for the circle and r for the radius

我可以用斜截式来解直线方程。但是，我不想处理以c为点的复杂方程，所以我只是平移了坐标系使圆在(0,0)处

p3 = p1 - c
p4 = p2 - c

顺便说一下，当我相互减分的时候，我是在减去x再减去y，然后把它们放到一个新的点里，以防有人不知道。

不管怎样，我现在解出p3和p4的直线方程

m = (p4_y - p3_y) / (p4_x - p3) (the underscore is an attempt at subscript)
y = mx + b
y - mx = b (just put in a point for x and y, and insert the m we found)

好的。现在我需要让这两个方程相等。首先我需要解圆的x方程

x^2 + y^2 = r^2
y^2 = r^2 - x^2
y = sqrt(r^2 - x^2)

然后我让它们相等:

mx + b = sqrt(r^2 - x^2)

求二次方程(0 = ax^2 + bx + c)

(mx + b)^2 = r^2 - x^2
(mx)^2 + 2mbx + b^2 = r^2 - x^2
0 = m^2 * x^2 + x^2 + 2mbx + b^2 - r^2
0 = (m^2 + 1) * x^2 + 2mbx + b^2 - r^2

现在我有了a b c。

a = m^2 + 1
b = 2mb
c = b^2 - r^2

我把这个代入二次公式

(-b ± sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a

用值代入，然后尽可能简化:

(-2mb ± sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a
(-2mb ± sqrt((-2mb)^2 - 4(m^2 + 1)(b^2 - r^2))) / 2(m^2 + 1)
(-2mb ± sqrt(4m^2 * b^2 - 4(m^2 * b^2 - m^2 * r^2 + b^2 - r^2))) / 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± sqrt(4 * (m^2 * b^2 - (m^2 * b^2 - m^2 * r^2 + b^2 - r^2))))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± sqrt(4 * (m^2 * b^2 - m^2 * b^2 + m^2 * r^2 - b^2 + r^2)))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± sqrt(4 * (m^2 * r^2 - b^2 + r^2)))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± sqrt(4) * sqrt(m^2 * r^2 - b^2 + r^2))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± 2 * sqrt(m^2 * r^2 - b^2 + r^2))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± 2 * sqrt(m^2 * r^2 + r^2 - b^2))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± 2 * sqrt(r^2 * (m^2 + 1) - b^2))/ 2m^2 + 2

这几乎是化简的极限了。最后，分离出带有±的方程:

(-2mb + 2 * sqrt(r^2 * (m^2 + 1) - b^2))/ 2m^2 + 2 or     
(-2mb - 2 * sqrt(r^2 * (m^2 + 1) - b^2))/ 2m^2 + 2 

然后简单地将这两个方程的结果代入mx + b中的x。为了清晰起见，我写了一些JavaScript代码来演示如何使用这个:

function interceptOnCircle(p1,p2,c,r){
    //p1 is the first line point
    //p2 is the second line point
    //c is the circle's center
    //r is the circle's radius

    var p3 = {x:p1.x - c.x, y:p1.y - c.y} //shifted line points
    var p4 = {x:p2.x - c.x, y:p2.y - c.y}

    var m = (p4.y - p3.y) / (p4.x - p3.x); //slope of the line
    var b = p3.y - m * p3.x; //y-intercept of line

    var underRadical = Math.pow((Math.pow(r,2)*(Math.pow(m,2)+1)),2)-Math.pow(b,2)); //the value under the square root sign 

    if (underRadical < 0){
    //line completely missed
        return false;
    } else {
        var t1 = (-2*m*b+2*Math.sqrt(underRadical))/(2 * Math.pow(m,2) + 2); //one of the intercept x's
        var t2 = (-2*m*b-2*Math.sqrt(underRadical))/(2 * Math.pow(m,2) + 2); //other intercept's x
        var i1 = {x:t1,y:m*t1+b} //intercept point 1
        var i2 = {x:t2,y:m*t2+b} //intercept point 2
        return [i1,i2];
    }
}

我希望这能有所帮助!

附注:如果任何人发现任何错误或有任何建议，请评论。我是新手，欢迎大家的帮助/建议。

虽然我认为使用线圆交点，然后检查交点是否在端点之间更好，可能更便宜，但我想添加这个更直观的解决方案。

我喜欢把这个问题想象成“香肠上的点问题”，在不改变算法的情况下，它可以在任何维度上工作。 这个解找不到交点。

以下是我想到的:

(我使用“小于”，但“小于或等于”也可以使用，这取决于我们测试的内容。)

确保Circle_Point小于到无限线的半径距离。(这里使用最喜欢的方法)。 计算从两个Segment_Points到Circle_Point的距离。 测试较大的Circle_Point-Segment_Point距离是否小于根号(Segment_Length^2+Radius^2)。 (这是从一个分段点到一个理论点的距离，也就是从另一个分段点到无限线(直角)的半径距离。见图片)。

3 t。如果为true: Circle_Point在sausage内部。 3 f。如果为false:如果较小的Circle_Point- segment_point距离小于Radius，则Circle_Point在sausage内部。

图片:最粗的线段是选定的线段，没有示例圆。有点粗糙，有些像素有点不对。

function boolean pointInSausage(sp1,sp2,r,c) {
  if ( !(pointLineDist(c,sp1,sp2) < r) ) {
    return false;
  }
  double a = dist(sp1,c);  
  double b = dist(sp2,c);
  double l;
  double s;
  if (a>b) {
    l = a;
    s = b;
  } else {
    l = b;
    s = a;
  }
  double segLength = dist(sp1,sp2);
  if ( l < sqrt(segLength*segLength+r*r) ) {
    return true;
  }
  return s < r;
}  

如果发现任何问题，告诉我，我会编辑或撤回。

以下是我在TypeScript中的解决方案，遵循@Mizipzor建议的想法(使用投影):

 * @param a the start point of the line segment
 * @param b the end point of the line segment
 * @param c the center point of the sphere
 * @param r the radius of the sphere
 */
export function lineSphereIntersects(
  a: IPoint,
  b: IPoint,
  c: IPoint,
  r: number
): boolean {
  // find the three sides of the triangle formed by the three points
  const ab: number = distance(a, b);
  const ac: number = distance(a, c);
  const bc: number = distance(b, c);

  // check to see if either ends of the line segment are inside of the sphere
  if (ac < r || bc < r) {
    return true;
  }

  // find the angle between the line segment and the center of the sphere
  const numerator: number = Math.pow(ac, 2) + Math.pow(ab, 2) - Math.pow(bc, 2);
  const denominator: number = 2 * ac * ab;
  const cab: number = Math.acos(numerator / denominator);

  // find the distance from the center of the sphere and the line segment
  const cd: number = Math.sin(cab) * ac;

  // if the radius is at least as long as the distance between the center and the line
  if (r >= cd) {
    // find the distance between the line start and the point on the line closest to
    // the center of the sphere
    const ad: number = Math.cos(cab) * ac;
    // intersection occurs when the point on the line closest to the sphere center is
    // no further away than the end of the line
    return ad <= ab;
  }
  return false;
}

export function distance(a: IPoint, b: IPoint): number {
  return Math.sqrt(
    Math.pow(b.z - a.z, 2) + Math.pow(b.y - a.y, 2) + Math.pow(b.x - a.x, 2)
  );
}

export interface IPoint {
  x: number;
  y: number;
  z: number;
}
