ABSTRACT
The advent of digital fabrication technologies has opened the doors to ever-more-complex shapes in architecture. Computer-controlled mills, drills, and cutters are used to transfer the principles of mass customization to the building industry. Those CNC tools can produce thousands of individual components almost at the cost of mass production, allowing construction of complex curved shapes within reasonable budgets.

Contour canonical form: an efficient intrinsic embedding approach to matching non-rigid 3D objects
ICMR '12: Proceedings of the 2nd ACM International Conference on Multimedia RetrievalEvaluating the intrinsic similarities between non-rigid 3D shapes is of vital importance in content-based shape retrieval. In this paper, we present a novel intrinsic embedding technique, the contour canonical form, to express the isometry-invariant ...
