Preparation:

Read the seminal paper by Catmull and Clark on subdivision surfaces
 

Warm-up Problem: Devise an Interpolating Subdivision Surface

Topic: Subdivision (cont.) 

Topological Limitations of the B-spline Control Mesh

The Classical Subdivision Surfaces by Catmull & Clark

Another Subdivision Surface

Key points about useful subdivision schemes:


Nice Work on the Goblet Assignment!

New Reading Assignments:

Paper by Doo and Sabin on subdivision surfaces

Chapters 2 and 3 from: C. Loop, "Smooth Subdivision Surfaces Based on Triangles"
This is also a nice review of B-spline subdivision!
Some errata found in this thesis.

New Homework Assignment:

Design the Control Mesh for a Smooth Genus-4 Surface.

The goal is to design a highly-symmetrical control mesh for a closed genus-4 subdivision surface based on triangles
(which could be later used for experiments in surface-energy minimization studies).
Following an iterative design process, we will do this in stages:
