# To Barycentric

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page covers the **To Barycentric node** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It expresses a position as barycentric coordinates relative to a triangle's vertices — the basis for interpolating data across triangle surfaces.

A given position can be described as a barycentric vector relative to the vertices of a triangle. If you like to convert a barycentric vector to a position, use the “From Barycentric” Node instead.
