About

Freely customizable, iterative nD subdivision curves for open / closed geometries. This is a support package for @thi.ng/geom.

Based in principle on:

• Generating subdivision curves with L−systems on a GPU
• Clojure version thi.ng/geom-clj.

Available subdivision schemes

The following schemes are available as presets and their effects illustrated.

Chaikin subdivision

SUBDIV_CHAIKIN is supported for open & closed geometries.

Cubic subdivision

SUBDIV_CUBIC is only supported for closed geometries (at current).

Dyn-Levin-Gregory subdivision

SUBDIV_DLG is only supported for closed geometries (at current).

Displacement subdivision

SUBDIV_DISPLACE is a higher order, customizable subdivision and supported for open & closed geometries.

Split at midpoints

SUBDIV_MID is supported for open & closed geometries.

Split at thirds

SUBDIV_THIRDS is supported for open & closed geometries.

Status

STABLE - used in production
