Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for integrating a three-dimensional asset with a three-dimensional model

摘要

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for integrating a three-dimensional asset with a three-dimensional model. Each asset can include a base surface and either a protrusion or a projection extending from the base. Once the asset is placed at a particular position with respect to the model, one or more vertices defining a periphery of the base surface can be projected onto an external surface of the model. Then, one or more portions of the asset can be deformed to provide a smooth transition between the external surface of the asset and the external surface of the model. In some cases, the asset can include a hole extending through the external surface of the model for defining a cavity. A secondary asset can be placed in the cavity such as, for example, an eyeball asset placed in an eye socket asset.

主权项

1. A method for integrating an asset with a three-dimensional model, wherein the asset comprises a pivot point and a base, and wherein the model comprises a surface, the method comprising:
displaying the three-dimensional model; identifying a contact point on the surface of the model at which to place the asset; identifying at least one plane tangent to the surface of the model at the contact point of the surface of the model on which the base is projected; positioning the asset on the model such that the pivot point of the asset coincides with the identified contact point; modifying the shape of the asset such that a region of the shape of the asset in the vicinity of the projected base is in the identified at least one plane; projecting the base onto the surface of the model; and modifying a shape of the asset in the vicinity of the base to provide a smooth transition between the asset and the surface of the model; wherein the base of the asset is initially enclosed within the model when the asset is positioned prior to projecting the base onto the surface of the model.
