Abstract: Rapid advancement of 3D sensing techniques has led to dense and accurate point cloud of an object to be readily available. The growing use of such scanned point sets in product design, ...

Abstract: Growing use of massive scan data in various engineering applications has necessitated research on point-set surfaces. A point-set surface is a continuous surface, defined directly with a set of ...

Abstract: This paper presents an approach for generating curvature-adaptive finishing tool paths with bounded error directly from massive point data in three-axis computer numerical control (CNC) milling. ...
