Abstract

In reverse engineering, the whole surfaces of the three-dimensional product are measured using 3D positional scanners. The raw triangle meshes constructed from a scanned point set are not well fitted for direct use in the downstream engineering or graphic activities. No object can be fully described by a single scan. Although multiple scans are usually taken and aligned to achieve a complete model, a set of scanned points does not entirely wrap the whole object. This is because some surfaces may be inaccessible to the scanner, so some portion of the scanned surface may be missing. This paper discusses the algorithms of a hole-filling that are crucial to refine the triangle meshes. In this paper, the holes are filled with flat triangles first by subdivision operation and then smoothed with neighboring triangles. This process continues until it converges to a certain user-defined iteration number. Examples are given and discussed to validate the system.
