  • Compression and Streaming of Polygon Meshes
    Compression and Streaming of Polygon Meshes by Martin Isenburg A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Computer Science. Chapel Hill 2005 Approved by: Jack Snoeyink, Advisor Craig Gotsman, Reader Peter Lindstrom, Reader Dinesh Manocha, Committee Member Ming Lin, Committee Member ii iii ABSTRACT MARTIN ISENBURG: Compression and Streaming of Polygon Meshes (Under the direction of Jack Snoeyink) Polygon meshes provide a simple way to represent three-dimensional surfaces and are the de-facto standard for interactive visualization of geometric models. Storing large polygon meshes in standard indexed formats results in files of substantial size. Such formats allow listing vertices and polygons in any order so that not only the mesh is stored but also the particular ordering of its elements. Mesh compression rearranges vertices and polygons into an order that allows more compact coding of the incidence between vertices and predictive compression of their positions. Previous schemes were designed for triangle meshes and polygonal faces were triangulated prior to compression. I show that polygon models can be encoded more compactly by avoiding the initial triangulation step. I describe two compression schemes that achieve better compression by encoding meshes directly in their polygonal representation. I demonstrate that the same holds true for volume meshes by extending one scheme to hexahedral meshes. Nowadays scientists create polygonal meshes of incredible size. Ironically, com- pression schemes are not capable|at least not on common desktop PCs|to deal with giga-byte size meshes that need compression the most.

  • Important Notes for DWG to DGN Conversions
    Important notes for DWG to DGN conversions Some issues/differences in the functionality of AutoCAD and MicroStation will present issues with the drawing conversions that could either not be resolved programmatically, or have been deemed too difficult/time consuming to resolve for the LaDOTD environment. Some of these issues are outlined below: Cells / Blocks The blocks used in the DWG block libraries were created by converting the LaDOTD MicroStation cell library files. Data Fields are used in a number of the MicroStation cells (e.g. title blocks); however there is no direct equivalent for Data Fields in AutoCAD. There is currently no workflow equivalent for this for using AutoCAD with LaDOTD projects so any required Data Field information will need to be entered after the files are converted to MicroStation. If you are not using the Altiva supplied MVBA to convert the DWG files to DGN (see the convert section below) you should check the filter settings for the file conversions. You will need to uncheck the Shared Cells flag in the remapping filter so that the Shared Cells from AutoCAD will change to normal cells in MicroStation. LIN file / RSC symbology The LaDOTD linestyles used for AutoCAD have an “-AC” suffix on their names. This is to help with conversions to MicroStation DGN format. Without the rename, MicroStation would simply load the LIN file version of these line styles and no conversion would occur. In order to force the conversion back to the RSC version of the line style, different names for line styles are required. This is not the case going from DGN to DWG as the LIN file is defined in the mapping translation file.

  • Notes on Polygon Meshes 1 Basic Definitions
    CMSC 23700 Introduction to Computer Graphics Handout 2 Autumn 2015 November 12 Notes on polygon meshes 1 Basic definitions Definition 1 A polygon mesh (or polymesh) is a triple (V; E; F ), where V a set of vertices (points in space) E ⊂ (V × V ) a set of edges (line segments) F ⊂ E∗ a set of faces (convex polygons) with the following properties: 1. for any v 2 V , there exists (v1; v2) 2 E such that v = v1 or v = v2. 2. for and e 2 E, there exists a face f 2 F such that e is in f. 3. if two faces intersect in space, then the vertex or edge of intersection is in the mesh. If all of the faces of a polygon mesh are triangles, then we call it a triangle mesh (trimesh). Polygons can be tessellated to form triangle meshes. Definition 2 We classify edges in a mesh based on the number of faces they are part of: • A boundary edge is part of exactly one face. • An interior edge is part of two or more faces. • A manifold edge is part of exactly two faces. • A junction edge is part of three or more faces. Junction edges are to be avoided; they can cause cracks when rendering the mesh. Definition 3 A polymesh is connected if the undirected graph G = (VF ;EE), called the dual graph, is connected, where • VF is a set of graph vertices corresponding to the faces of the mesh and • EE is a set of graph edges connecting adjacent faces.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Creating Simplified 3D oM dels with High Quality Textures Abstract This paper presents an extension to the KinectFusion algorithm which allows creating simplified 3D models with high quality RGB textures. This is achieved through (i) creating model textures using images from an HD RGB camera that is calibrated with Kinect depth camera, (ii) using a modified scheme to update model textures in an asymmetrical colour volume that contains a higher number of voxels than that of the geometry volume, (iii) simplifying dense polygon mesh model using quadric-based mesh decimation algorithm, and (iv) creating and mapping 2D textures to every polygon in the output 3D model. The proposed method is implemented in real-Time by means of GPU parallel processing. Visualization via ray casting of both geometry and colour volumes provides users with a real-Time feedback of the currently scanned 3D model.
