A Smoothing Operator for Boolean Operations on Surfel-Bounded Solids
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a simple smoothing operator for surfel-bounded solids obtained by adding two solids together using boolean operations. When adding two surfel-bounded solids together with the union operator, it is sometimes desirable to smooth out the sharp creases in the surface of the resulting solid. This report presents a simple local smoothing operator for this purpose. We illustrate that this operator enables us to obtain a more natural integration of the two solids added together.

Dynamic surfel set refinement for high-quality rendering
Splatting-based rendering techniques are currently the best choice for efficient high-quality rendering of point-based geometries. However, such techniques are not suitable for large magnification, especially when the object is undersampled. This paper improves the rendering quality of pure splatting techniques using a fast dynamic up-sampling algorithm for point-based geometry. Our algorithm i...
متن کاملThe 13 - th International Conference in Central Europe on Computer
A mathematical model for free-form solid modelling was presented in previous published works. The key aspects of this model are the decomposition of the volume occupied by the solid into non-disjoint cells, and the representation of the solid as an algebraic sum of these cells. Here we apply this scheme to represent CSG solids built by combining free-form solids in boolean operations. As a proo...
متن کاملNon-evaluated Manipulation of Complex CSG Solids
One of the most important problems to solve in Solid Modeling is computing boolean operations for solids (union, intersection and difference). In this paper we present a method to obtain the boolean operators based on covering the solids by simplices without evaluating the boundary. The representation of the obtained solid does not correspond with the minimal boundary of the solid, but using th...
متن کاملBoolean Operations on Point-Sampled Geometry
In computer graphics boolean operations have been around for years. In contrast, point sampled geometry models represent a new and stirring side of graphics which is researched mostly in the last couple of years. Papers about the combination of CSG and surfels only appeared recently, and it’s hard to find a generalized overview of the possible choices. Therefor our goal is to fill this hole, to...
