Abstract:

Abstract. This paper describes a simple algorithm for the adaptive polygonization of implicit surfaces. It gives a practical way to construct optimal piecewise linear representations. The method starts with a coarse uniform polygonal approximation of the surface and subdivides each polygon recursively according to local curvature. In that way, the inherent complexity of the problem is tamed by reducing part of the full three dimensional search to two dimensions. 1
