Shrink wrap generation systems and methods
A system and method for generating a shrink wrap around a model. The method includes detecting non-manifold edges in an octree generated shrink wrap by counting a number of faces adjacent to each edge, removing the non-manifold edges by cloning the edges or vertices shared by the non-manifold edge, and generating a first projection for the wrapper by moving each wrapper vertex towards a nearest location on the model. The method includes determining a set of wrapper vertices for reprojection based on the computation of a projection angle and a rotational angle and generating a second projection for the set the wrapper vertices using a seed-based closest point method or the center of the adjacent wrapper vertices.
