### Raycaster Options

const raycaster = new THREE.Raycaster();

// Near/far clipping (default: 0, Infinity)
raycaster.near = 0;
raycaster.far = 100;

// Line/Points precision
raycaster.params.Line.threshold = 0.1;
raycaster.params.Points.threshold = 0.1;

// Layers (only intersect objects on specific layers)
raycaster.layers.set(1);

### Efficient Raycasting

// Only check specific objects
const clickables = [mesh1, mesh2, mesh3];
const intersects = raycaster.intersectObjects(clickables, false);

// Use layers for filtering
mesh1.layers.set(1); // Clickable layer
raycaster.layers.set(1);

// Throttle raycast for hover effects
let lastRaycast = 0;
function onMouseMove(event) {
  const now = Date.now();
  if (now - lastRaycast < 50) return; // 20fps max
  lastRaycast = now;

  // Raycast here
}
