Abstract

m [1]): # Scanning: Acquisition of surface samples with a measurement device, such as a laser range scanner or a stereographic system. # Data registration: Alignment of several scans into a single coordinate system. # Data integration: Interpolation of the measured samples or points derived from the measured samples with a surface representation, usually a triangle mesh. # Model conversion: Mesh decimation/optimization, fitting with higher-order representations, etc. This paper focuses on the data integration phase. We present a new method for finding a triangle mesh that interpolates an unorganized set of points. Fig. 1 shows a closeup view of a 14M triangle mesh obtained by running our algorithm on hundreds of scans of Michelangelo's Florentine Pieta . The model took 30 minutes to compute on a Pentium II PC. The method makes two mild assumptions about the samples that are valid for a
