Abstract: Methods and systems for generating surface data from polygonal data are disclosed. The methods and systems receive polygonal data which describe discrete points on an object. The methods and systems analyze and use the data to calculate and define a continuous BREP object which accurately represents the original polygonal object. In some embodiments, the generated BREP is G2 continuous at substantially all points.

Abstract: Systems and methods of updating graphical objects are disclosed. The methods and systems receive polygonal data which describe discrete points on an object. A control mesh and a smoothed version of the control mesh are simultaneously displayed. When the control mesh is edited, the smoothed version is automatically updated by smoothing only a portion of the edited control mesh to generate a smoothed section, and replacing a portion of the smoothed version with at least a selected portion of the smoothed section.

Abstract: Systems and methods of updating graphical objects are disclosed. The methods and systems receive polygonal data which described points on an object. A user indicates a length, and retopologized data for a region is automatically generated based on the length such that the retopologized data has fewer geometries than the received polygonal data in the region.

Abstract: Methods and computer systems for generating and polygonal data are disclosed. The methods and systems receive polygonal data which describe discrete points on an object. The methods and systems algorithmically add vertices and edges prior to algorithmically smoothing and conforming the polygonal data in order to produce desired features, such as fillets, in the smoothed data.

Abstract: Methods and systems for generating surface data from polygonal data are disclosed. The methods and systems receive polygonal data which describe discrete points on an object. The methods and systems analyze and use the data to calculate and define a continuous BREP object which accurately represents the original polygonal object. In some embodiments, the BREP object is modified and certain details of the modification operations are recorded. The polygonal data may be edited and a new BREP object created based on the edited polygonal data. The new BREP object may be automatically modified by automatically reperforming the recorded modification operations.
