GPU-assisted positive mean value coordinates for mesh deformations

چکیده
In this paper we introduce positive mean value coordinates (PMVC) for mesh deformation. Following the observations of Joshi et al. [JMD∗07] we show the advantage of having positive coordinates. The control points of the deformation are the vertices of a "cage" enclosing the deformed mesh. To define positive mean value coordinates for a given vertex, the visible portion of the cage is integrated over a sphere. Unlike MVC [JSW05], PMVC are computed numerically. We show how the PMVC integral can be efficiently computed with graphics hardware. While the properties of PMVC are similar to those of Harmonic coordinates [JMD∗07], the setup time of the PMVC is only of a few seconds for typical meshes with 30K vertices. This speed-up renders the new coordinates practical and easy to use.

Harmonic Coordinates
Generalizations of barycentric coordinates in two and higher dimensions have been shown to have a number of applications in recent years, including finite element analysis, the definition of Spatches (n-sided generalizations of Bézier surfaces), free-form deformations, mesh parametrization, and interpolation. In this paper we present a new form of d dimensional generalized barycentric coordinat...
متن کاملSkeleton-based Variational Mesh Deformations
In this paper, a new free-form shape deformation approach is proposed. We combine a skeleton-based mesh deformation technique with discrete differential coordinates in order to create natural-looking global shape deformations. Given a triangle mesh, we first extract a skeletal mesh, a two-sided Voronoi-based approximation of the medial axis. Next the skeletal mesh is modified by free-form defor...
متن کاملLocal Painting and Deformation of Meshes on the GPU
We present a novel method to adaptively apply modifications to scene data stored in GPU memory. Such modifications may include interactive painting and sculpting operations in an authoring tool, or deformations resulting from collisions between scene objects detected by a physics engine. We only allocate GPU memory for the faces affected by these modifications to store fine-scale color or displ...
متن کاملMesh Geometric Editing Approach Based on Gpu Texture
This paper presents a novel interactive mesh editing approach based on GPU texture mapping. The main feature is that it copies 2D surface geometry information to GPU frame buffer. The planar mesh information is transformed into GPU texture and placed on apposite position of target mesh. 3D information is retrieved after stitching two mesh components from the primitive vertex coordinates. When r...
متن کاملMultiresolution GPU Mesh Painting
Mesh painting is a well accepted and very intuitive metaphor for adding high-resolution detail to a given 3D model: Using a brush interface, the designer simply paints fine-scale texture or geometry information onto the surface. In this paper we propose a fully GPU-accelerated mesh painting technique, which provides real-time feedback even for highly complex meshes. Our method can handle arbitr...
