Use

Using pre-made functions

import * as THREE from 'three';
import {
	computeBoundsTree, disposeBoundsTree,
	computeBatchedBoundsTree, disposeBatchedBoundsTree, acceleratedRaycast,
} from 'three-mesh-bvh';

// Add the extension functions
THREE.BufferGeometry.prototype.computeBoundsTree = computeBoundsTree;
THREE.BufferGeometry.prototype.disposeBoundsTree = disposeBoundsTree;
THREE.Mesh.prototype.raycast = acceleratedRaycast;

THREE.BatchedMesh.prototype.computeBoundsTree = computeBatchedBoundsTree;
THREE.BatchedMesh.prototype.disposeBoundsTree = disposeBatchedBoundsTree;
THREE.BatchedMesh.prototype.raycast = acceleratedRaycast;

// Generate geometry and associated BVH
const geom = new THREE.TorusKnotGeometry( 10, 3, 400, 100 );
const mesh = new THREE.Mesh( geom, material );
geom.computeBoundsTree();

// Or generate BatchedMesh and associated BVHs
const batchedMesh = new THREE.BatchedMesh( ... );
const geomId = batchedMesh.addGeometry( geom );
const instId = batchedMesh.addGeometry( geom );

// Generate bounds tree for sub geometry
batchedMesh.computeBoundsTree( geomId );

Or manually building the BVH

import * as THREE from 'three';
import { MeshBVH, acceleratedRaycast } from 'three-mesh-bvh';

// Add the raycast function. Assumes the BVH is available on
// the `boundsTree` variable
THREE.Mesh.prototype.raycast = acceleratedRaycast;

// ...

// Generate the BVH and use the newly generated index
geom.boundsTree = new MeshBVH( geom );

And then raycasting

// Setting "firstHitOnly" to true means the Mesh.raycast function will use the
// bvh "raycastFirst" function to return a result more quickly.
const raycaster = new THREE.Raycaster();
raycaster.firstHitOnly = true;
raycaster.intersectObjects( [ mesh ] );

Additional Geometry BVHs

In addition to MeshBVH for triangle meshes, the library provides specialized BVH implementations for other geometry types:

• PointsBVH - For THREE.Points geometries
• LineBVH - For THREE.Line geometries
• LineLoopBVH - For THREE.LineLoop geometries
• LineSegmentsBVH - For THREE.LineSegments geometries

These can be used with the extension functions by passing a type option into "computeBoundsTree" or constructing them explicitly:
