  11. Bézier Curves Summary • DeCastlejau algorithm is good for • Evaluating position(t) and tangent(t), • Subdividing the curve into 2 subcurves with their own control polygons. • Subdivision of Bézier curves and their convex hull property allows for: • Adaptive rendering based on a flatness criterion, • Adaptive collision detection using line segment tests.

  19. Subdivision Curve Summary • Subdivsion is a recursive 2 step process: • Topological split at midpoints, • Local averaging/smoothing operator applied. • Doubles the number of vertices at each step • Subdivision curves are nothing new: • Suitable averaging rules can yield uniform B-spline curves.

  21. Subdivision Overview Control Mesh Topological Split Averaging Limit Surface • Subdivision is a two part process: • Topological split • Local averaging / smoothing

  22. Subdivision Overview Control Mesh Generation 1 Generation 2 Generation 3 Repeated uniform subdivisions of the control mesh converge to the limit surface. Limit surface can be calculated in closed form for stationary schemes(averaging mask does not change).

  23. Outline • Review Bézier Curves • Subdivision Curves • Subdivision Surfaces: • Quad mesh (Catmull-Clark scheme) • Triangle mesh (Loop scheme) • Fractal Mountains

  24. B-spline Surfaces • A cubic B-spline surface patch is controlled by a regular 4x4 grid of control points

  25. B-spline Surfaces • 2 adjacent patches share 12 control points and meet with C2 continuity

  26. B-spline Surfaces • Requires a regular rectangular control mesh grid and all valence-4 vertices to guarantee continuity.

  27. Catmull-Clark Subdivision Surface • Yields smooth surfaces over arbitrary topology control meshes. • Closed control mesh  closed limit surface. • Quad mesh generalization of B-splines • C1 at non-valence-4 vertices, • C2 everywhere else (B-splines). • Also: Sharp corners can be tagged • Allows for smooth and sharp features, • Allows for non-closed meshes.

  28. Catmull-Clark Subdivision Gen 0 Gen 1 Gen 2 • Extraordinary vertices are generated by non-valence-4vertices and faces in the input mesh. • No additional extraordinary vertices are created after the first generation of subdivision.

  32. Summary • Subdivision is a 2 step recursive process: • Topological split, • Local averaging / smoothing. • It is an easy way to make smooth objects • of irregular shape • of topologies other than rectangular (torus).

  35. Linear Fractal Mountains Gen 0: • 2-step recursive process: • Subdivide chain by creating edge midpoints, • Randomly perturb midpoint positions(proportional to subdivided edge length). Gen 1: Gen 2: Gen 3:

  36. Fractal Mountain Surfaces Gen 0 Gen 1 Gen 2 • 2-step recursive process: • Subdivide triangles at edge midpoints, • Randomly perturb midpoint positions.

  37. Fractal Mountains Summary • 2-step recursive process: • Topological split at edge midpoints, • Random perturbation of midpoint positions. • Triangle topological split maintains a water-tight connected mesh. • Useful to make uneven, “natural” terrain. • Often a low-order subdivision is good enough to control terrain-following vehicles.
