Abstract:


    This talk introduces iBind, a novel indirect binding technique improving on mean value coordinates (MVC)[1]. iBind smoothly deforms vertices using a control cage by uniquely leveraging heat diffusion on closed, thin layers across a structured set of mean value coordinates. The talk begins by discussing the limitations of previous techniques, and proceeds with an explanation of iBind, which produces fast, stable, and appealing spacial deformation.
