CS5611 Reading List: Week 9

Textbook Material

Read the following slides

B-spline.pdf. Two more will be available soon: NURBS.pdf and Mesh.pdf
In this directory is a file NURBSvis.exe. This is a small program written by a former MTU graduate student John Fisher. This program illustrates the relationship between a 3D B-spline curve and a 2D NURBS curve.
Also in the common directory is WE.tar.gz. This file contains a winged- and half- edge data structures visualization and animation system developed by a former MTU graduate student Bryan Neperud. This is the Windows version. Click here for a paper, in PDF format, that describes the system.
My CS3621 Exercise 3 and Exercise 4 have programming notes on drawing Bézier and B-Spline curves.
