Next: 4 Geometry and Transformations Up: 3 Modelling Previous: 3.3 Capping Clipped Solids 3.4 Constructive Solid Geometry with the Stencil Buffer Before continuing, the it may help for the reader to be familiar with the concepts presented in Section Constructive solid geometry (CSG) models are constructed through the intersection ( ), union ( ), and subtraction ( ) of solid objects, some of which may be CSG objects themselves[ ]. The tree formed by the binary CSG operators and their operands is known as the CSG tree. Figure shows an example of a CSG tree and the resulting model. The representation used in CSG for solid objects varies, but we will consider a solid to be a collection of polygons forming a closed volume. ``Solid'', ``primitive'', and ``object'' are used here to mean the same thing. CSG objects have traditionally been rendered through the use of ray-casting, which is slow, or through the construction of a boundary representation (B-rep). B-reps vary in construction, but are generally defined as a set of polygons that form the surface of the result of the CSG tree. One method of generating a B-rep is to take the polygons forming the surface of each primitive and trimming away the polygons (or portions thereof) that don't satisfy the CSG operations. A B-rep models are typically generated once and then manipulated as a static model because they are slow to generate. Drawing a CSG model using stencil usually means drawing more polygons than a B-rep would contain for the same model. Enabling stencil also may reduce performance. Nonetheless, some portions of a CSG tree may be interactively manipulated using stencil if the remainder of the tree is cached as a B-rep.

Next: 8.4.1 Union Up: 8 Using the Stencil Previous: 8.3 Finding Depth Complexity 8.4 Constructive Solid Geometry with the Stencil Buffer Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) is the process of building complex solids from logical combinations of simpler ones [ ]. Basic logical operations, such as union, intersection, and inverse are used as relationship operators between pairs of three dimensional solids. In these algorithms, the solids are assumed to be defined by closed surfaces composed of polygons. The polygons composing the primitives are defined in a consistent way so that the front face of each polygon faces out from the surface. CSG is used as a method to create complex solids as part of a computer aided mechanical design process. Constructive solid geometry can be created using the stencil buffer functionality. It can be thought of as a ray-casting technique, counting the intersections the pixels of an solid's surface makes with other surfaces as it's projected onto the screen. The techniques shown here are image space techniques and are limited to visualizing CSG solids. They don't produce a list of vertices that could be used for further processing. They also tend to leave the depth buffer with values that don't match the visible surfaces. As a result, CSG solids often can't be used as components of a complex depth-buffered scene. Creating CSG solids is a multipass technique. Two objects are chosen, and the desired boolean relationship between the two is discovered. The basic CSG stencil operation is the ability to find the part of one solid's surface that exists in the volume defined by another solid. Pieces of each solids surface is progressively rendered, until the entire solid is completed. The solids created with CSG are rendered as pieces of the surfaces of component solids; no new surfaces are created.

Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Constructive solid geometry Constructive solid geometry (CSG) is a branch of solid modelling that deals with representations of a solid object as a combination of simpler solid objects. It is a procedural modelling technique used in 3D computer graphics The simplest solid objects used for the representation are called primitives . Typically they are the objects of simple shape: cuboids, cylinders, prisms, pyramids , spheres, cones. The set of allowable primitives may be restricted; e.g., curved shapes may be forbidden. It is said that an object is constructed from primitives by means of allowable operations , which are typically Boolean operations on sets union intersection and difference This technique operates somewhat differently from polygonal modelling, in which objects are approximated using a series of polygons . Its main application area is CAD Table of contents 1 CSG Operations 1.1 Boolean Union 1.2 Boolean Difference 1.3 Boolean Intersection ... 2 Applications of CSG CSG Operations In modelling packages, basic geometric objects such as the cube or 'box', sphere or ellipse, torus, and a number of other shapes that can be described using a mathematical formula, are commonly known as

B ELIEVE M E N OT! A S KEPTICs G UIDE Next: Algebra 1 Up: Geometry Previous: The Pythagorean Theorem: Solid Geometry Most of us learned how to calculate the volumes of various solid or 3-dimensional objects even before we were told that the name for the system of conventions and ``laws'' governing such topics was ``Solid Geometry.'' For instance, there is the cube , whose volume V is the cube (same chicken/egg problem again) of the length of one of its 8 edges . Similarly, a cylinder has a volume V equal to the product of its cross-sectional area A and its height h perpendicular to the base: V Ah . Note that this works just as well for any shape of the cross-section - square, rectangle, triangle, circle or even some irregular oddball shape. If you were fairly advanced in High School math, you probably learned a bit more abstract or general stuff about solids. But the really deep understanding that (I hope) you brought away with you was an awareness of the qualitative difference between 1-dimensional lengths , 2-dimensional areas and 3-dimensional volumes . This awareness can be amazingly powerful even without any ``hairy Math details'' if you consider what it implies about how these things change with scale Figure: Triangular, square and circular right cylinders.

The three CSG operations are union intersection and difference CSG is covered in FvDFH sections 12.7 and 15.10.3. The following example illustrates the three CSG operations in use on simple three dimensional primitives. The two primitives: a sphere and a box. The union of the two primitives. The intersection of the two primitives. The difference of the two primitives: box minus sphere. The following example, based on FvDFH Plate III.2, shows an object for which CSG is (probably) the only sensible modelling technique. The object rendered in the right-hand image is constructed from the primitives shown in the left-hand image. It is mostly made out of cylinders, but you will recognise the extruded star from Lecture 2B At right, I tried the "Godel, Escher, Bach" treatment on my initials. Unfortunately the letters N, A, and D are not as amenable to this as the letters G, E, and B: notice that the shadow of the N has a slight curve at its top right, owing to the N's intersection with the curve on the D and the slope on the A. Various other arrangements of the three letters were tried, all of which gave more noticable artefacts than this. Each of the letters is a CSG object (the D, for example, is constructed from cylinders and boxes). The final effect is produced simply by intersecting the three letters.

Next: Other Methods Up: Shape Representation in Other Previous: Boundary Representation Constructive Solid Geometry Constructive solid geometry systems allow the definition of complex three dimensional objects using a combination of simpler objects. A CSG system normally includes a set of solid shape primitives such as cubes, cylinders, cones, etc. which can be defined in a range of sizes and shapes. These primitives are combined using ``set operations'', or ``boolean operations'', which allow the shape of an object to be described as the intersection of other objects, or as the union of objects. Inverse sets (or subtractions) are used to make holes in the overall shape. The resulting shapes can in turn be joined, or intersected with other shapes, to describe three dimensional shape of any complexity. CSG systems often include facilities for defining new primitives by ``sweeping'' operations, such as those that are used in the generalised cylinder method described in the previous section. Two well known CAD research systems that use CSG methods are GMSolid [ ], and PADL-2 [
