patch2EdgeIm

Below is a demonstration of the features of the patch2EdgeIm function

EXAMPLE 1: CONVERTING A PATCH TYPE SURFACE TO AN EDGE IMAGE WITH DESIRED SIZE, VOXEL SIZE, ORIGIN AND EDGE SUBDEVISIONS
EXAMPLE 2: THICKNENING OF THE RESULT AND CREATING SURFACE STRUCTURES

EXAMPLE 1: CONVERTING A PATCH TYPE SURFACE TO AN EDGE IMAGE WITH DESIRED SIZE, VOXEL SIZE, ORIGIN AND EDGE SUBDEVISIONS

Defining an example surface model, in this case a torus consisting of hexagonal faces mesh

% Defining a deformed and rotated torus shape
r=1; %Sphere radius
rc=2; %Central radius
nr=10;
nc=12;
ptype='honey';
[F,V]=patchTorus(r,nr,rc,nc,ptype);

Setting control parameters

% Defining the full set of possible control parameters
voxelSize=0.1; % The output image voxel size.
imOrigin=min(V,[],1)-3*voxelSize;
imMax=max(V,[],1)+3*voxelSize;
imSiz=round((imMax-imOrigin)/voxelSize);
imSiz=imSiz([2 1 3]); %Image size (x, y corresponds to j,i in image coordinates, hence the permutation)
n=50;

% Using |patch2EdgeIm| function to convert patch data to image data
[M,~]=patch2EdgeIm(F,V,voxelSize,imOrigin,imSiz,n);

%Build iso-surface

[Fc,Vc] = isocaps(X,Y,Z,M,isoLevel); %Caps to close the shape
Fc=fliplr(Fc); %Flip so normal faces outward

%Join model segments

%Merge nodes
