Variational Volumetric Surface Reconstruction from Unorganized Points
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reconstruction of smooth surfaces from point sets is an important problem in many applications since this sort of data often appear in real-life scenarios. This paper presents method for solving this this problem at interactive rates by means of second order energy minimization obtained by solving △2 = 0 on a discrete scalar field using an iterative multigrid approach. Every step in the reconstruction process takes place on the GPU. Consequently, the surface is immediately available for any standard volume visualization method utilizing packed volume textures. This eliminates the need for lare amounts of texture transfers or a costly polygonization step.

The displaced subdivision surface reconstruction from unorganized points
In this paper we propose a new mesh reconstruction scheme that produces a displaced subdivision surface directly from unorganized points. The displaced subdivision surface is a new mesh representation that defines a detailed mesh with a displacement map over a smooth domain surface, but original displaced subdivision surface algorithm needs an explicit polygonal mesh since it is not a mesh reco...

Surface approximation from unorganized points belongs to the state-of-art of computer graphics. In this work, we present approaches for surface reconstruction that are based on efficient numerical schemes for function approximation from scattered data and on sophisticate data structures. In addition, we develop a relevant surface reconstruction method to model moving interfaces, specifically, i...

In this paper we propose a new mesh reconstruction algorithm that produces a displaced subdivision mesh directly from unorganized points. The displaced subdivision surface is a new mesh representation that defines a detailed mesh with a displacement map over a smooth domain surface. This mesh representation has several benefits — compact mesh size, piecewise regular connectivity — to overcome l...
متن کامل3D surface modeling from curves
Traditional approaches for surface reconstruction from range data require that the input data be either range images or unorganized sets of points. With these methods, range data acquired along curvilinear patterns cannot be used for surface reconstruction unless constraints are imposed on the shape of the patterns or on sensor displacement. This paper presents a novel approach for reconstructi...
متن کاملOrienting unorganized points for surface reconstruction
We address the problem of assigning consistently oriented normal vectors to unorganized point cloud with noises, non-uniformities, and thinsharp features as a pre-processing step to surface reconstruction. The conventional orienting scheme using minimal spanning tree fails on points with the above defects. Different from the recently developed consolidation technique, our approach does not modi...
