Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel 3D B-Spline surface reconstruction technique for 3D metamorphosis for animation and entertainment. The approach allows one-to-one mapping between the object space and a parameter space, and therefore automatic correspondence between a pair of reconstructed objects. B-Spline-based shape representation also has the advantages of: 1) easy shape editing, 2) level of detail control, and 3) compact storage.
