Class AmbientLight


public class AmbientLight extends Light
An ambient light source object. Ambient light is that light that seems to come from all directions. The AmbientLight object has the same attributes as a Light node, including color, influencing bounds, scopes, and a flag indicating whether this light source is on or off. Ambient reflections do not depend on the orientation or position of a surface. Ambient light has only an ambient reflection component. It does not have diffuse or specular reflection components.
