Controllable Edge Feature Sharpening for Dental Applications

Figure 2

The proposed controllable mesh sharpening approach: (a) an input mechanical model in which edge features are blurred, (b) the color map of the feature distance measure, (c) feature regions which are separated via a graph-cut segmentation, (d) color map of face normal vectors before normal filtering, (e) color map of face normal vectors after normal filtering, (f) the resulting model with sharp edge features but without oversharpening geometry, (g) zoomed regions in (d) and (e), and (h) zoomed regions in (a) and (f).
