Detailed Description

Structure used when searching for the intersection of a ray and an object

The fields originInstanceIndex,originSubIndexIndex and originFacetIndex are used to identify a particular triangle that is excluded from intersection calculation (usually the origin of the ray for a reflected ray). If you do not want to provide such a triangle, just use -1 in all those fields.
