Volume Sculpting Using the Level-Set Method



AbstractIn this paper, we propose the use of the Level--Set Method as the
underlying technology of a volume sculpting system. The main
motivation is that this leads to a very generic technique for
deformation of volumetric solids. In addition, our method preserves
a distance field volume representation. A scaling window is used to
adapt the Level--Set Method to local deformations and to allow the
user to control the intensity of the tool. Level--Set based tools
have been implemented in an interactive sculpting system, and
we show sculptures created using the system.
