for Surrogate Geometry On the Use of Loop Subdivision Surfaces

  • Conference paper

Abstract

This work examines the use of Loop subdivision surfaces as a surrogate for CAD or analytic-based geometry. The modeler begins by constructing a subdivision surface from a full-resolution imported surface triangulation, and then queries this surface to return information about the model.
