If an implicit surface (120) is defined by means of values assigned to vertices of a cell-based structure then this implicit surface (120) can be approximated by means of a triangulated surface which can be visualized. The method of approximating an implicit surface (120) by generation of a triangulated surface comprising a plurality of triangles (128) is characterized in that a location of a particular triangle vertex (122) is inside a cell (100) of the cell-based structure. The location of the particular triangle vertex (122) is calculated by means of the values assigned to the cell vertices (102-116) of one or more cells (100,101).
A method of approximating an implicit surface (120) by generation of a triangulated surface comprising a plurality of triangles (128) each having triangle vertices (122-126), whereby a particular triangle vertex (122) is based on values assigned to cell vertices (102-116) of a cell (100) corresponding with the particular triangle vertex (122), characterized in that a location of the particular triangle vertex (122) is inside the cell (100).
A surface generator unit (500) for approximating an implicit surface (120) by generation of a triangulated surface comprising a plurality of triangles (128) each having triangle vertices (122-126), whereby a particular triangle vertex (122) is based on values assigned to cell vertices (102-116) of a cell (100) corresponding with the particular triangle vertex (122), characterized in that the surface generator unit (500) is designed to determine a location of the particular triangle vertex (122) which is inside the cell (100).
