Boolean Operations using Generalized Winding Numbers

Published 29 Jan 2016 in cs.GR | (1601.07953v1)

Abstract: The generalized winding number function measures insideness for arbitrary oriented triangle meshes. Exploiting this, I similarly generalize binary boolean operations to act on such meshes. The resulting operations for union, intersection, difference, etc. avoid volumetric discretization or pre-processing.
