Abstract:


    The SuperD modeler employs a recursive subdivision, modeling interface for design, but without the troublesome extraordinary points or patch clusters at those points. The key to SuperD is use of new N-sided surface patches, which correspond to the mesh topology. The N-sided patches also enable G2 continuity, good triangulation and efficient mobile device implementation.
