  8. Basic idea cut sample

  9. Basic idea cut store render [r,g,b] = [x,y,z]

  10. How to cut ? 2D surface disk sphere in 3D

  11. How to cut ? • Genus-0 surface  any tree of edges 2D surface disk sphere in 3D

  12. How to cut ? • Genus-g surface  2g generator loops minimum torus (genus 1)

  13. Surface cutting algorithm (1) Find topologically-sufficient cut: 2g loops[Dey and Schipper 1995] [Erickson and Har-Peled 2002] (2) Allow better parametrization: additional cut paths[Sheffer 2002]

  14. Step 1: Find topologically-sufficient cut (a) retract 2-simplices (b) retract 1-simplices

  15. Results of Step 1 genus 6 genus 3 genus 0

  16. Step 2: Augment cut • Make the cut pass through “extrema” (note: not local phenomena). • Approach: parametrize and look for “bad” areas.

  17. Step 2: Augment cut …iterate while parametrization improves

  18. Results of Steps 1 & 2 genus 1 genus 0

  19. Parametrize boundary Constraints: • cut-path mates identical length • endpoints at grid points a a’ a’ a  no cracks

  20. Parametrize interior • optimizes point-sampled approx. [Sander et al 2002] • Geometric-stretch metric • minimizes undersampling [Sander et al 2001]

  21. Stretch parametrization Previous metrics (Floater, harmonic, uniform, …)

  25. Advantages for hardware rendering • Regular sampling  no vertex indices. • Unified parametrization  no texture coordinates. Raster-scan traversal of source data: geometry & attribute samples in lockstep. Summary: compact, regular, no indirection

  36. Summary • Simple rendering: compact, no indirection, raster-scan stream. • Mipmapped geometry • Hierarchical culling • Compressible

  37. Future work • Better cutting algorithms • Feature-sensitive remeshing • Tangent-frame compression • Bilinear and bicubic rendering • Build hardware
