OBJECT RETOPOLOGIZER HOLE REFILLER AND METHOD OF RETOPOLOGIZING HOLE REFILLING

摘要

A method and system for creating and refilling holes in image data is disclosed herein. The method can include receiving scanned image data that represents a tangible object, and that can be generated by an object scanner from the tangible object and converting the scanned image data to polygonal data that can be a collection of vertices, edges and faces. The method can include identifying geometry in the polygonal data for hole cutting and cutting a hole by removing the identified geometry from the scanned image data. The method can include generating modified polygonal data by filling the cut hole with polygonal data and outputting the modified polygonal data.

1. A method of hole refilling, the method comprising:
receiving scanned image data, wherein the scanned image data represents a tangible object, and wherein the scanned image data is generated by an object scanner from the tangible object; converting the scanned image data to polygonal data, wherein the polygonal data comprises a collection of vertices, edges and faces; identifying a geometry in the polygonal data for hole cutting, wherein the identified geometry is specified by a user; cutting a hole by removing the identified geometry from the scanned image data; generating modified polygonal data by filling the cut hole with polygonal data, wherein filling the hole comprises attaching a polygonal surface to the cut hole, wherein the polygonal surface is continuous with the image data around the hole; and outputting the modified polygonal data.
