Mesh Fusion Using a New and Improved Implicit Vector Field Surface Representation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose a new and improved implicit vector field surface representation to perform mesh fusion in the reconstruction process of 3D objects from scanned data. This new representation is an extension of the implicit scalar field distance function of a mesh. We show our new vector field function is more accurate than the classic scalar field function by comparing both representations with an error metric evaluation. We adapt the fusion process previously performed on the scalar representation to this new implicit vector field function. The Marching Cube triangulation algorithm is also adapted to our new vector representation to correctly reconstruct the resulting explicit surface after fusion. Results show that using this new vector field representation, our mesh fusion and mesh triangulation algorithm designs outperform the previous processes based on the implicit scalar field function representation.

Implicit Integral Surfaces
We present an implicit method for globally computing all four classic types of integral surfaces – stream, path, streak, and time surfaces – in 3D time-dependent vector fields. Our novel formulation is based on the representation of a time surface as implicit isosurface of a 3D scalar function advected by the flow field. The evolution of a time surface is then given as an isovolume in 4D space-...
متن کاملMulti-Resolution Geometric Fusion
Geometric fusion of multiple sets of overlapping surface measurements is an important problem for complete 3D object or environment modelling. Fusion based on a discrete implicit surface representation enables fast reconstruction for complex object modelling. However, surfaces are represented at a single resolution resulting in impractical storage costs for accurate reconstruction of large obje...
متن کاملSurface modeling using multi-view range and color images
This paper presents a framework of surface modeling from multi-view range and color images. The input to the algorithms are pairs of triangle meshes and color images, and each pair is obtained by a single-view scanning. In the proposed framework, the triangle meshes from raw data are first processed by the novel surface denoising algorithm based on area decreasing flow, which avoids the difficu...
متن کاملImplicit Surface Tension Formulation with a Lagrangian Surface mesh on an Eulerian Simulation Grid
We present a method for applying implicit forces on a Lagrangian mesh to an Eulerian discretization of the Navier Stokes equations in a way that produces a sparse symmetric positive definite system. The resulting method has implicit and fully coupled viscosity, pressure, and Lagrangian forces. We apply our new framework for forces on a Lagrangian mesh to the case of surface tension force, which...
متن کاملUsing Implicit Skeleton Shape Representations for Volumentric Shell Meshing
Low count tetrahedral meshes is desirable for animating deformable objects where accuracy is less important and to produce shell maps. This report develops a new method for creating a thick shell tetrahedral mesh from a triangular surface mesh. We propose to use signed distance fields to implicit represent the medial surface representation of a surface mesh. An iteratively algorithm is develope...
