Abstract
An interactive graphics system for the mathematical representation of physical models, comprising at least one measuring machine bidirectionally connected to a central unit to which are connected a video screen and a keyboard and including processor means adapted to receive from the measuring machine information on at least initial identification points of the model, to control the automatic detection of information on additional points of the model by means of the same measuring machine, and to process this point information to produce the mathematical representation of the model.
Claims8
An interactive system for the mathematical representation of physical models, characterized by the fact that it comprises at least one measuring robot or machine, means for processing and receiving information on at least initial identification points of said model and for providing automatic signals for the detection of information on additional points on said model by means of said measuring robot or machine, and second means for processing said information to produce said mathematical representation of said model, said means for processing said information including means for mathematically constructing the curves of boundaries approximating the projection of said initial identification points of said model and said additional points, and means for mathematically constructing an extended surface between said boundary curves.
