Design of a path connecting a first point to a second point in a three-dimensional scene

A computer program product comprising:

• a computer readable medium embodying a computer program for designing a path connecting a first point to a second point in a three-dimensional scene;
• instructions stored on the computer readable medium for execution of a design of said path connecting the first point to the second point in the three-dimensional scene by a computer, the instructions comprising means for:
• providing the first point coupled with a first vector;
• providing the second point coupled with a second vector;
• and
• providing a set of paths by following at the most three portions of a parallelepiped, the parallelepiped comprising the provided first point on a first vertex and the provided second point on a second vertex, a portion of the parallelepiped being an edge, a diagonal of a face, a space diagonal.

A computer-aided design system comprising:

• a graphical user interface coupled to a computer memory;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory, the memory having recorded thereon a computer program designing a path connecting a first point to a second point in a three-dimensional scene, by the processor:
• providing the first point coupled with a first vector;
• providing the second point coupled with a second vector;
• and
• providing a set of paths by following at the most three portions of a parallelepiped, the parallelepiped comprising the provided first point on a first vertex and the provided second point on a second vertex, a portion of the parallelepiped being an edge, a diagonal of a face, a space diagonal.
