Find bisector of a line segment

Questions & Answers

Hi, I am new to unity and I need help.

I have two Vector3 - A and B. Lets say we connect them with a line.

I need to find the bisector of that line segment (the line that is perpendicular to the segment and it originates from its midpoint).

I tried my best to do it by myself but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

        var camera = UnityEditor.SceneView.lastActiveSceneView.camera;// replace with in-game camera elsewhere
        Vector3 viewDirection = camera.transform.forward;
        
        Vector3 O = A + (B-A)*0.5f;
        Vector3 OC = Vector3.Cross( viewDirection , B-O );
        Vector3 C = O + OC;

        Gizmos.color = Color.black; Gizmos.DrawLine( A , B );
        Gizmos.color = Color.red; Gizmos.DrawLine( O , C );
        UnityEditor.Handles.Label( A , nameof(A) );
        UnityEditor.Handles.Label( B , nameof(B) );
        UnityEditor.Handles.Label( C , nameof(C) );

        UnityEditor.Handles.Label( O+OC*0.5f , $"{nameof(OC)} = {OC}" );
