Abstract

A novel algorithm is proposed to locate the sets of adjacent co-spherical triangles for a given object, which enables us to detect spheres and spherical parts constituting the object. An extension of the idea of Hough transform has been used, aided by axial discretization and restricted searching, along with the geometric data structure of doubly connected edge list. The algorithm has been analyzed and shown to achieve significant efficiency in space and run-time. On testing the algorithm with various 3D objects, it is found to produce the desired result. Effects of different input parameters have been explained and the robustness of the algorithm has been shown for rough/noisy surfaces.
