Description:


    Subdivision is an efficient way to generate smooth surfaces. The appearance of the limit surface is largely determined by a few parameters of the scheme. Visually complicated shapes can be obtained from simple initial polyhedra. Divergence of subdivision for large-value parameters also produces interesting visual effects. More details and information on the subdivision algorithms in this animation are in the SIGGRAPH 96 paper “Interpolating Subdivision for Meshes of Arbitrary Topology.”
