Abstract

A new subdivision depth computation technique for extra-ordinary Catmull-Clark subdivision surface (CCSS) patches is presented. The new technique improves a previous technique by using a matrix representation of the second order norm in the computation process. This enables us to get a more precise estimate of the rate of convergence of the second order norm of an extra-ordinary CCSS patch and, consequently, a more precise subdivision depth for a given error tolerance.
