An Approach of 3D Military Symbols Dynamic Modeling and Optimizing Based on Control Grid
It is one of the most important parts of the research on virtual battlefield for 3D military symbol modeling. A dynamic modeling method based on the control grid was declared
Bezier grid and DEM grid are used to control the military symbol models 3D shape. The military symbol is divided into several line segments according to its slope. Then
a Bezier grid is drawn around the symbol
when the Bezier grid is warped. The symbol will be projected into the grid
as well as the line segments are transformed into 3D space and are optimized by the angle of two line segments. With surface reconstruction from Delaunay triangulation
a 3D military symbol will be created. The DEM grid is used to control the 3D military symbol models shape also; the 3D military symbol can be limited into the DEM grid and follow the DEM grids surface.
