00:24.49Notify03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 64308 (brlcad/trunk/src/libbrep/shape_recognition_cylinder.cpp brlcad/trunk/src/libbrep/shape_recognition_util.cpp): Tweak testing - almost certainly more work to do here, but first need to fix the hierarchy build.
00:45.47Notify03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 64309 brlcad/trunk/src/libbn/polygon.c: If we have points but no convex points, we've probably got a non CCW polygon. This test won't help for a non-convex polygon, but it may be a helpful clue in some situations.
00:47.16starseekernmz787_i: that sounds like a brep shape
00:53.29Notify03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 64310 brlcad/trunk/src/libbn/polygon.c: tweak comment

03:10.55nmz787Simple Method for Constructing NURBS Surfaces from Unorganized Points
03:11.20nmz787I could make combinations of NURBS objects right?
03:13.53nmz787'the NURBS surface model has a disadvantage: the input data points should be mapped on a regular grid structure'
03:14.13nmz787'In order to fit a NURBS surface to an unorganized and scattered point cloud, several approaches have been presented'
03:14.53nmz787'In contrast with others, our method does not need to construct a network of NURBS patches. Furthermore, previous construction of polygon meshes, mesh refinement and data reparameterization are not required.'

05:14.18albertcoderhi brlcad!
05:16.32albertcoderWanted to know a bit of the import export feature in Materials Database.
05:17.21albertcoderPresently the properties can be exported in JSON, CSV. But can you please shed some light on importing?
05:17.48albertcoderI mean where are we expecting to import data from?

11:36.06starseekernmz787: We've actually done some experimental work on that, and adapted the PCL work to BRL-CAD.  It's not enough, unfortunately, to create solid BRep shapes
11:36.41starseekeryou can fit a surface to points like in the Sandia paper and the PCL example, but you have to fit multiple surfaces and make them meet up to do that and get a real solid
11:36.54starseekerwhich those methods don't allow, as they stand
11:42.42starseekerThis is the paper to start with for implementing that:  http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/hoppe/proj/bspline/
11:43.08starseekerthere are a few others that are relevant, but that's the one I'd start with...
