Current algo- 1 Migration from desktop application rithmic design environments are based on existing computer-aided design applications or building to the cloud. information modeling applications, such as AutoCAD, Rhinoceros 3D, or Revit, which, due to their complexity, fail to give architects the immediate feedback they need to explore algorithmic design. In addition, they do not address the current trend of moving applications to the cloud to improve their availability. To address these problems, we propose a software architecture for an algorithmic design inte- grated development environment (IDE), based on web technologies, that is more interactive than competing algorithmic design IDEs. Besides providing an intuitive editing interface which facilitates programming tasks for architects, its performance can be an order of magnitude faster than current aalgorithmic design IDEs, thus supporting real-time feedback with more complex algorithmic design programs. Moreover, our solution also allows architects to export the generated model to their preferred computer-aided design applications. This results in an algorithmic design environment that is accessible from any computer, while offering an interactive editing environment that inte- grates into the architect’s workflow. 72 INTRODUCTION programming languages that also support traceability between Throughout the years, computers have been gaining more ground the program and the model: when the user selects a component in the field of architecture.

Bonus Ch. 2 More Modeling Techniques
Bonus Ch. 2 More Modeling Techniques When it comes to modeling in modo, the sky is the limit. This book is designed to show you all of the techniques available to you, through written word and visual examples on the DVD. This chapter will take you into another project, in which you’ll model a landscape. From there, you’ll texture it, and later you’ll add the environment. You’ll see how modo’s micro polygon displacement works and how powerful it is. From there, you’ll create a cool toy gun. The techniques used in this project will show you how to create small details that make the model come to life. Then, you’ll learn to texture the toy gun to look like real plastic. Building a Landscape Landscapes traditionally have been a chore for 3D artists. This is because to prop- erly create them, you need a lot of geometry. A lot of geometry means a lot of polygons, and a lot of polygons means a lot of render time. But the team at Luxology has introduced micro polygon displacement in modo 201/202, allow- ing you to create and work with simple objects, but render with millions of poly- gons. How is this possible? The micro polygon displacement feature generates additional polygons at render time. The goal is that finer details can be achieved without physically modeling them into the base object. You can then add to the details achieved through micro poly displacements with modo’s bump map capabilities and generate some terrific-looking models.

3D Modeling and the Role of 3D Modeling in Our Life
ISSN 2413-1032 COMPUTER SCIENCE 3D MODELING AND THE ROLE OF 3D MODELING IN OUR LIFE 1Beknazarova Saida Safibullaevna 2Maxammadjonov Maxammadjon Alisher o’g’li 2Ibodullayev Sardor Nasriddin o’g’li 1Uzbekistan, Tashkent, Tashkent University of Informational Technologies, Senior Teacher 2Uzbekistan, Tashkent, Tashkent University of Informational Technologies, student Abstract. In 3D computer graphics, 3D modeling is the process of developing a mathematical representation of any three-dimensional surface of an object (either inanimate or living) via specialized software. The product is called a 3D model. It can be displayed as a two-dimensional image through a process called 3D rendering or used in a computer simulation of physical phenomena. The model can also be physically created using 3D printing devices. Models may be created automatically or manually. The manual modeling process of preparing geometric data for 3D computer graphics is similar to plastic arts such as sculpting. 3D modeling software is a class of 3D computer graphics software used to produce 3D models. Individual programs of this class are called modeling applications or modelers. Key words: 3D, modeling, programming, unity, 3D programs. Nowadays 3D modeling impacts in every sphere of: computer programming, architecture and so on. Firstly, we will present basic information about 3D modeling. 3D models represent a physical body using a collection of points in 3D space, connected by various geometric entities such as triangles, lines, curved surfaces, etc. Being a collection of data (points and other information), 3D models can be created by hand, algorithmically (procedural modeling), or scanned. 3D models are widely used anywhere in 3D graphics.

Using Depth Cameras for Dense 3D Modeling of Indoor Environments
RGB-D Mapping: Using Depth Cameras for Dense 3D Modeling of Indoor Environments Peter Henry1, Michael Krainin1, Evan Herbst1, Xiaofeng Ren2, Dieter Fox1;2 Abstract RGB-D cameras are novel sensing systems that capture RGB images along with per-pixel depth information. In this paper we investigate how such cam- eras can be used in the context of robotics, speciﬁcally for building dense 3D maps of indoor environments. Such maps have applications in robot navigation, manip- ulation, semantic mapping, and telepresence. We present RGB-D Mapping, a full 3D mapping system that utilizes a novel joint optimization algorithm combining visual features and shape-based alignment. Visual and depth information are also combined for view-based loop closure detection, followed by pose optimization to achieve globally consistent maps. We evaluate RGB-D Mapping on two large indoor environments, and show that it effectively combines the visual and shape informa- tion available from RGB-D cameras. 1 Introduction Building rich 3D maps of environments is an important task for mobile robotics, with applications in navigation, manipulation, semantic mapping, and telepresence. Most 3D mapping systems contain three main components: ﬁrst, the spatial align- ment of consecutive data frames; second, the detection of loop closures; third, the globally consistent alignment of the complete data sequence. While 3D point clouds are extremely well suited for frame-to-frame alignment and for dense 3D reconstruc- tion, they ignore valuable information contained in images. Color cameras, on the other hand, capture rich visual information and are becoming more and more the sensor of choice for loop closure detection [21, 16, 30].

The focus of such analysis is to create a computer based environment to represent visual analysis of architectural form and space. The paper highlights the restrictions that were found in a specific 3D-computer model environment to satisfy a basic diagrammatic need for analysis. Motion related features that take into account of parametric changes are also investigated to help enhance representation of analytic models. Acknowledging the restrictions, it can be stated that computational media are the only ones at present that can create an interactive multimedia format using components constructed through various computational techniques Keywords: 3D Model, Analytic Diagram, Motion Model, Form Analysis, Design Principles.

Multi-Resolution Surfel Maps for Efficient Dense 3D Modeling And
Journal of Visual Communication and Image Representation 25(1):137-147, Springer, January 2014, corrected Table 3 & Sec 6.2. Multi-Resolution Surfel Maps for Efficient Dense 3D Modeling and Tracking JörgStückler and Sven Behnke Autonomous Intelligent Systems, Computer Science Institute VI, University of Bonn, Friedrich-Ebert-Allee 144, 53113 Bonn, Germany fstueckler, [email protected] Abstract Building consistent models of objects and scenes from moving sensors is an important prerequisite for many recognition, manipulation, and navigation tasks. Our approach integrates color and depth measurements seamlessly in a multi-resolution map representation. We process image sequences from RGB-D cameras and consider their typical noise properties. In order to align the images, we register view-based maps efficiently on a CPU using multi- resolution strategies. For simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), we determine the motion of the camera by registering maps of key views and optimize the trajectory in a probabilistic framework. We create object models and map indoor scenes using our SLAM approach which includes randomized loop closing to avoid drift. Camera motion relative to the acquired models is then tracked in real-time based on our registration method. We benchmark our method on publicly available RGB-D datasets, demonstrate accuracy, efficiency, and robustness of our method, and compare it with state-of-the- art approaches. We also report on several successful public demonstrations where it was used in mobile manipulation tasks. Keywords: RGB-D image registration, simultaneous localization and mapping, object modeling, pose tracking 1. Introduction Robots performing tasks in unstructured environments must estimate their pose in reference to objects and parts of the environment.
