Quadrilateral Remeshing with Global Alignment
Kazu Mishiba, Masaaki Ikehara, Keiichiro Shirai · 2009
In this paper, we propose a new remeshing algorithm that captures the global structure of an object for 3D editing. The resulting meshes are quadrilateral, are of global alignment and have a multi-resolution structure. Additionally, their low-resolution mesh shows object features with a few vertices. Our algorithm is summarized as follows. First, a 3D object is converted into voxels, and then the object skeleton is computed. Next, the initial mesh is obtained from the skeleton. Finally, the remeshed object is yielded by moving vertices on the mesh to the voxel boundary. We show experimental results of remeshing some objects to validate the proposed algorithm.
