IDENTIFYING FEATURES IN POLYGONAL MESHES

摘要

A polygonal mesh is received and the edges and vertices of the polygonal mesh are analyzed. A positive (e.g., convex or protruding) feature may be identified where the positive feature is bound by a non-concave edge (e.g., a convex edge or a planar edge). A negative (e.g., concave or receding) feature may also be identified where the negative feature is bound by a non-convex edge (e.g., a concave edge or a planar edge).

1. A method comprising:
receiving a computer representation of an object; and identifying, by a processing device, a protruding feature of the computing representation of the object bound by a non-concave edge or a receding feature of the computer representation of the object bound by a non-convex edge.
