Iso-Surface Generator

Iso-Surface Generator 1.4 R (iso-surf)

CISST.Utilities.Surface

[edu.jhu.cs.cisst.plugins.utilities.surface.PlugInIsoSurfaceGenerator]

Description

Generates an iso-surface using either the marching-cubes or marching-tetrahedral algorithm.

Notes

The patent for marching-cubes expired in 2005 and is now available for use in the public domain. This implementation is a reimplementation of a C++ version by Cory Boyd with enhancements that preserve mesh connectivity.
