Abstract

The accompanying film shows some general sessions of working with an interactive graphics system to design free-form curves and surfaces. In particular, it demonstrates the use of a very general B-spline curve package that allows the user to specify desired attributes like degree, shape, type of parametrization, and periodicity. Other schemes that show the use of "tension" as a parameter in design will ge presented.
