Zusammenfassung

We present a method that deforms an image plane to visually meet the shape and pose of a manifold sur-face. The user provides constraints that couple a small number of surface points with their corresponding im-age pixels to initially deform the plane. Matching, based on geodesic distances, couples additional points, followed by a second deformation that brings the im-age plane into its final pose and shape. The method works on any type of surface that supports geodesic distances evaluation. This includes not-triangulated and high genus models with arbitrary topology. The result is a smooth, visually pleasing and realistic tex-tured surface that can be superimposed onto or used instead of the original model and with some limitations can be considered as a parameterization or remeshing method for the area of interest.
