Simplygon is 3D computer graphics software for automatic 3D optimization, based on proprietary methods for creating levels of detail (LODs) through Polygon mesh reduction and other optimization techniques.
Polygon Cruncher software is running on Windows operating system.It is available as a plugin for: . Autodesk 3ds Max; Autodesk Maya; Newtek Lightwave; 3DBrowser. In the 3D Photo Browser, Polygon Cruncher is able to simplify various 3D formats such as Maya, Wavefront, TrueSpace, SketchUp, XSI, COLLADA, DXF, etc.
ZBrush is used for creating "high-resolution" models (ie. models that reach 40+ million polygons) for use in movies, games, and animations, by companies ranging from ILM [1] [2] and Wētā FX, [3] to Epic Games and Electronic Arts. [4] ZBrush uses dynamic levels of resolution to allow sculptors to make global or local changes to their models.
Sketch based modeling is a user-friendly interface for constructing low-detail models quickly, while 3D scanners can be used to create high detail meshes based on existing real-world objects in an almost automatic way. These devices are very expensive, and are generally only used by researchers and industry professionals but can generate high ...
Polygon Mesh Processing by Mario Botsch et al. is a textbook on the topic of Geometry Processing. [1]Geometry processing is an area of research that uses concepts from applied mathematics, computer science and engineering to design efficient algorithms for the acquisition, reconstruction, analysis, manipulation, simulation and transmission of complex 3D models.
These half-spaces are used to describe primitives that can be combined to get the final model. [7] Another approach decouples the detection of primitive shapes and the computation of the CSG tree that defines the final model. This approach exploits the ability of modern program synthesis tools to find a CSG tree with minimal complexity. [8]
Again using the example of rendering double-sided polygons using the painter's algorithm, to draw a polygon P correctly requires that all polygons behind the plane P lies in must be drawn first, then polygon P, then finally the polygons in front of P. If this drawing order is satisfied for all polygons in a scene, then the entire scene renders ...
In the field of 3D computer graphics, a subdivision surface (commonly shortened to SubD surface or Subsurf) is a curved surface represented by the specification of a coarser polygon mesh and produced by a recursive algorithmic method.
