Geração interativa de malhas em multiresolução através de marcadores em realidade aumentada

Abstract

This work presents a method that allows the deformation of a terrain by modifying your heightmap in an augmented reality environment. The hierarchical structure of A4 8 meshes was used to represent terrains. This structure defines a parameter space to calculate the coordinates of a field in the R3 Euclidean space. In particular, this paper deals with the problem of modeling spherical terrains. An error metric dependent on the observer and the geometry of the land used for its observation and modeling. The results demonstrate that the use of A4-8 mesh combined with the tangible augmented reality system is flexible to shape spherical terrains and can be easily modified to deal with other topologies, such as the torus and the cylinder. The development of an efficient and intuitive to use method for mesh generation, based on augmented reality markers, is the main contribution of this work.
