| Abstract: | Shading makes faceted objects appear smooth. However, the contour will still appear non smooth. Subdivision schemes can handle this problem by introducing new polygons in the mesh. The disadvantage is that a more complex mesh takes more time to render than a simple one. We propose a new method for constructing a curvilinear mesh using quadratic curves with near least square acceleration. This mesh could be used for subsequent subdivision of the surface. This can be done on the fly, at least in software rendering, depending on the curvature of the contour. The advantage is that new polygons are only inserted where needed. However, in this paper we will focus on how such curvilinear mesh can be constructed using vertex points and vertex normals for each polygon. Thus, information about neighboring polygons are not needed and on the fly subdivision is made easier. |
