Boolean Operations using Generalized Winding Numbers
Abstract
The generalized winding number function measures insideness for arbitrary oriented triangle meshes. Exploiting this, I similarly generalize binary boolean operations to act on such meshes. The resulting operations for union, intersection, difference, etc. avoid volumetric discretization or pre-processing.
