Abstract

Methods and apparatus to facilitate 3D object visualization and manipulation across multiple devices are disclosed. Example apparatus disclosed herein include a viewpoint determiner, a visible shard determiner, and a laminate assembler. The viewpoint determiner determines a viewpoint location of a viewpoint corresponding to a viewing device, the viewpoint location being in a reference frame of a three-dimensional (3D) model. The visible shard determiner determines a visible shard set of the 3D model based on the viewpoint location. The laminate assembler generates a two-dimensional (2D) imageof the visible shard set.

Description

[0001] Related Application Cross Reference [0002] This international application claims priority to U.S. Patent Application No. 62 / 622,075, filed January 25, 2018, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to three-dimensional (3D) computer graphics, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus that facilitate visualization and manipulation of 3D objects across multiple devices. Background technique [0004] 3D geometric models are often used to design and manufacture products (e.g., architecture, construction, real estate, games, healthcare, scientific visualization, movies, etc.). During the design process, iterative changes to the 3D model are typically made through electronically sending updated 3D model files back and forth between designers (eg, engineers, technicians, draftsmen, etc.). However, 3D model file sizes are often too large to send via traditional email, and / or t...
