20160125659 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MULTILEVEL EDITING OF SUBDIVIDED POLYGONAL DATA - Methods and systems of editing an electronic geometric model are disclosed. The method includes receiving a first indication which indicates that a portion of the polygonal data is to be modified, and moving a first vertex of the plurality of vertices from a first subdivision position defined by a subdivision algorithm to a second position. The movement of the first vertex from the first subdivision position to the second position results in a modification of the polygonal data. The method also includes generating a first vector identifying the movement of the first vertex from the first subdivision position to the second position, which first vector is defined by an initial point at the first subdivision position of the first vertex and a terminal point at the second position of the of the first vertex, and associating the first vector with the subdivision position of the first vertex. | 05-05-2016 |
20160125650 | CONSTRAINT OF A SUBDIVIDED MODEL - A method of generating a design for a device is disclosed. The method includes electronically accessing a scan mesh representing a topology, and electronically accessing a source polygonal data model, where the source polygonal data model includes a plurality of source vertices. The method also includes modifying position characteristics of one or more of the source vertices, where the source vertices are modified so that after the source polygonal data model is subdivided, vertices in the subdivided source polygonal data model corresponding with the modified source vertices conform to the scan mesh. The method also includes subdividing the source polygonal data model having the modified source vertices to generate the design, where subdividing the source polygonal data model causes vertices in the design to be positioned such that the design conforms with the scan mesh at least partly because of the modified position characteristics of the modified source vertices. | 05-05-2016 |
