Sketch-Based Adaptive Mesh Augmentation Using Stellar Operators

Afonso Paiva, Ronan Amorim, Luiz Carlos Pacheco Rodrigues Velho, Mário Costa Sousa · 2011

In this paper we present a new method for modeling and editing surface detail using free-form curves and a natural interface. It combines in a original way an adaptive multiresolution mesh structure with a simple, intuitive sketch-based interface. One of the novel contributions of this work is the curve sensitive mesh resolution control, which allows the definition of a rich set of operators that locally modify the surface geometry. Furthermore, the present framework provides the basic functionality to build a complete feature based modeling system.
