[Bf-committers] GSoC 2011: Improving Retopology Tools

[Sergey Kurdakov]

Hi Tim

> those papers have nothing to do with the current proposal.

could you please elaborate?

the workflow of pen is following - a  shape is drawn and is filled
with triangles.

there could be two cases

1) just plain surface,
2) a surface in 3D

in case of plain surface - it seems not of much use.
in case of 3D surface one needs to  'construct' imaginary 3D object
and then fill it with triangles.

For these purposes there are several approaches - including
tetrahedrization (tetgen) or reconstruction surface with marching
cubes or similar algos ( the same goes for quad remeshing - after a
'surface' is somehow given - it can be effectivly covered with quads -
dual contouring is just to fill some surface - how it is given - by
sketch or mesh is a second question her  ).

so it might not be 3D sketching, but then -
OK,
still the algorithm for the proposal should be provided and be just a
'pen' proposal.

Regards
Sergey
