Interactive Design of Planar Curved Folding by Reflection
نویسندگان
چکیده
Designing curved folds of a developable surface remains an open problem. No analytical method for the design of curved folds has been reported. Although optimization methods exist, it is difficult to interactively design valid curved folds of a single developable surface using such methods. In the present paper, we propose an interactive system for designing a surface with planar curved folds based on mirror reflection. The key consideration is that a surface created by sequential reflective folding is guaranteed to be isometrically unfolded into a plane. We demonstrate that the proposed system enables the interactive design of a variety of expressive curved folds, which was very difficult using previous methods.

Developable Surfaces with Curved Creases
Fascinating and elegant shapes may be folded from a single planar sheet of material without stretching, tearing or cutting, if one incorporates curved folds into the design. We present an optimizationbased computational framework for design and digital reconstruction of surfaces which can be produced by curved folding. Our work not only contributes to applications in architecture and industrial...
متن کاملReal-Time Recursive Specular Reflections on Planar and Curved Surfaces using Graphics Hardware
Real-time rendering of recursive reflections have previously been done using different techniques. However, a fast unified approach for capturing recursive reflections on both planar and curved surfaces, as well as glossy reflections and interreflections between such primitives, have not been described. This paper describes a framework for efficient simulation of recursive specular reflections ...
متن کاملDesigning One-DOF Mechanisms for Architecture by Rationalizing Curved Folding
We propose a modeling method based on rationalizing curved folding in order to find the form variations of 1DOF origami mechanism. We interact with a physical paper model of curved folding and then discretize a curved folding by identifying and fixing the rulings. The discretized form is a rigid origami structure with at most one degree of freedom. The form adjustment follows the discretization...
متن کاملOne-DOF Rigid Foldable Structures from Space Curves
We show a novel design method of one-DOF deployable mechanism based on a space curve, through creating a curved folding and discretizing the folding into rigid origami. By interpreting constant angle curved folding as a flat-foldable quadrilateral mesh origami, we design novel irregular tessellated, cylindrical, and cellular flatly collapsible structures, whose behavior is easily controlled by ...
متن کاملFresnel laws at curved dielectric interfaces of microresonators.
We discuss curvature corrections to Fresnel's laws for the reflection and transmission of light at a nonplanar refractive-index boundary. The reflection coefficients are obtained from the resonances of a dielectric disk within a sequential-reflection model. The Goos-Hänchen effect for curved light fronts at a planar interface can be adapted to provide a qualitative and quantitative extension of...
