Multiperiodic 함수를 이용한 Smooth Genus N객체의 텍스쳐매핑

Abstract

This paper presents a new way of texture mapping on the Genus N object constructed over a single domain. The problem of 2D texture mapping is the discontinuity of texture domain at the virtual boundary on the object. Such phenomenon decreases smoothness of the object as well as looks unnatural. Especially it is necessary for the Genus N object of infinite coninuity to apply the seamless texture mapping. For seamless texture mapping, a multiperiodic function, which transforms a discontinuous function into a continuous function, is suggested. In some applications, however, the visual seams on the textured object provide more realistic appearance. Therefore, this research supports the interactive control from the discontinuity and the continuity across the boundary using the coefficient of the weight function.
