Boolean Operations on Surfaces for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Lloyd B.
This document describes an implementation of a filter to perform Boolean operations between surfaces. The filter requires the GNU Triangulated Surface Library GTS to perform the operations. This document is accompanied with the source code, and the xml files [...]

A Conditional Mesh Front Iterator for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
Region growing is a technique that can be used to propagate information over a mesh. In a previous submission, "A Mesh Front Iterator for VTK", we introduced an iterator that can be used with vtkPointSet subclasses to traverse a mesh. It is sometimes useful [...]

A Mesh Front Iterator for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
Region growing is a technique that can be used to propagate information over a mesh. We provide an iterator that can be used with vtkPointSet subclasses to traverse a mesh in a reasonable fashion. A "front" is emanated from a selected starting vertex, and the [...]

Graph Cuts Based Super Pixel Segmentation for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
Segmenting images into "super pixels" is lately a very hot topic. One implementation of such a technique is by Felzenszwalb and Huttenlocher. We propose a new class, vtkSuperPixelSegmentation, which has wrapped Felzenszwalb's code (with permission) to provide [...]

Stratified Mesh Sampling for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
This document presents an implementation of a stratified mesh sampling algorithm in the VTK framework. This code was adapted directly from the original implementation by Diego Nehab, with permission. We present a class, vtkStratifiedSampling, which uniformly [...]

Poisson Surface Reconstruction for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D., Gelas A.
This document presents an implementation of the Poisson surface reconstruction algorithm in the VTK framework. (This code was, with permission, adapted directly from the original implementation by Kazhdan, Bolitho, and Hugues. The original implementation can [...]

Using and Visualizing Projective Cameras in VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
This document presents a set of classes (vtkPhysicalCamera, vtkImageCamera) to enable a camera and an image acquired by that camera to be visualized in a 3D scene. Two situations where one would want to visualize camaras with associated images are range data [...]

A Voodoo Reader and Viewer for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
Voodoo is a popular, free structure from motion software package. It takes several, ordered images as input and computes the camera parameters of each image as well as a point cloud of an estimate of the 3D structure of the scene. This document presents a set [...]

A Leica PTX Reader for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
Leica LiDAR scanners output points in the PTX file format. It is often useful to convert this format to a standard VTK point cloud or mesh format before processing. We propose a new class, vtkPTXReader, to provide this functionality.

Point Set Surface Reconstruction for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
This document presents a set of classes (vtkPointSetSurfaceReconstruction, vtkVoxelizePolyData) to produce a surface from an oriented point set. These classes are implemented as VTK filters. A Paraview plugin interface is provided to allow extremely easy [...]
