Multi-edge decimation in multi-modal 3D collaborative applications
Andrew Tan Siak Chuan, Jinglan Zhang · 2009
Multi-resolution modelling has become essential as modern 3D applications demand 3D objects with higher LODs (LOD). Multimodal devices such as PDAs and UMPCs do not have sufficient resources to handle the original 3D objects. The increased usage of collaborative applications has created many challenges for remote manipulation working with 3D objects of different quality. This paper studies how we can improve multi-resolution techniques by performing multi-edge decimation and using annotative commands. It also investigates how devices with poorer quality 3D object can participate in collaborative actions.
