Real-time texture-mapped vector glyphs
2006
Proceedings of the 2006 symposium on Interactive 3D graphics and games - SI3D '06
An optimized uniform grid accelerator is created using Voronoi analysis and redundancy elimination, so only the distances to a small constant number of features need be computed at every access. ...
Variations in glyph complexity are handled by storing different glyphs at different grid resolutions. ...

The objective is to obtain an editable CAD model that is manufacturable and describes accurately the structure and topology of the point cloud. The point cloud is sliced into cross sections. ...
So we compute a cubic B-Spline that interpolates the points of the feature polyline. The use of a cubic B-Spline ensures that we have G 1 continuity (instead of G 0 with the polyline). ...
The process of interpolating the feature polyline with B-Splines is performed in all cross sections, and at the end, the point cloud is described by a sequence of B-Spline contours. ...
