Geometry processing, or mesh processing, is a fast-growing area of research that uses concepts from applied mathematics, computer science, and engineering to design efficient algorithms for the acquisition, reconstruction, analysis, manipulation, simulation, and transmission of complex 3D models. Applications of geometry processing algorithms already cover a wide range of areas from multimedia, entertainment, and classical computer-aided design, to biomedical computing, reverse engineering, and scientific computing. Over the last several years, triangle meshes have become increasingly popular, as irregular triangle meshes have developed into a valuable alternative to traditional spline surfaces. This book discusses the whole geometry processing pipeline based on triangle meshes. The pipeline starts with data input, for example, a model acquired by 3D scanning techniques. This data can then go through processes of error removal, mesh creation, smoothing, conversion, morphing, and more. The authors detail techniques for those processes using triangle meshes. A supplemental website contains downloads and additional information.

Wie beeinflussen virtuelle Umgebungen das gesellschaftliche Zusammenleben und was ist eine „Virtual Production Intelligence“? Mit welchen Awarenessfunktionen ist die Wirklichkeit in virtuellen Welten nachzubilden? Haben virtuelle Unternehmen eigene Organisationskulturen? Wie lässt sich Virtualität konstruktivistisch deuten? Durch die digitale Revolution bestimmt Virtualität seit Jahren nicht nur zunehmend unser Privatleben, sondern spielt auch in verschiedenen Wissenschaftsdisziplinen eine bedeutende Rolle. Sie bietet nicht nur neue Möglichkeiten und Perspektiven, sondern gibt auch Anlass, die Konsequenzen für Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft zu betrachten. Dieser Band stellt die Ergebnisse einer interdisziplinären Fachkonferenz zum Thema Virtualität der RWTH Aachen University vor.
