Reuse of a geometric model for shape approximation

Abstract

A robust procedure of three-dimensional shape modeling for an objeci approximation is proposed A solid model isfirst prepared or reused for theprotovpe and then transfeerred to the model that approximates the shape of the object. Vertw geometv of the protoype is modified based on the multi-directional silhouettes and light stripe puttem projection. Topology of ihe mesh, shape and connectivilg/ of the vertices, of the protoppe is consewed throughout the modeling process. Stable meshing and accurate shape approximation are achieved, startingfrom a simpk or U dedicated model with desired meshes. A dedicated male sculpture and a simple cylinder with quadrilateral meshes are demonstruted f i r the shape approximation. This eliminates the hboriolrs modeling procedures, rewing a proven or simple and stable model, and the complicated camera calibrations.

Topologically Robust Reconstruction of a 3d Object With Organized Meshing

“…This means that the face array listing assigned for the unit surface SA is valid for the object surface Sa. N-gonal meshes are similarly constructed (Doi et al, 2004).…”

Topologically Robust Surface Reconstruction for 3D Shape Modification

“…There are a great number of books [1][2][3][4], review articles [5-7], papers [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19], and products [20] dealing with the problems. Recently, surface models with triangular meshes have been built based on the so-called ICP algorithm from the scanned cloud points obtained by, for instance, triangulation scanners.…”
