The Solid Modelling package we use is RoboSolid Modeller from Robocom Limited, UK (or Robosystems in some places). Models can be built interactively on the screen using mouse. One of the output files is in the format of SXF, which includes coordinate data of vertex, facets formed from those vertices and the adjacence of those facets. The work I am intending to do starts from the SXF file. I woulde like to translate the SXF fromat into the internal representation of models in the model base of our vision system. I'd like to hear anything about using comercial modelling packages as the modeller of vision systems. Thanks a lot. guanghua [ I requested this author post more info about this package. If you know of any other solid modelling packages which you feel could be useful for vision, please post a summary and pointers to the source. phil... ] ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Nov 88 10:20:55 +0100 From: prlb2!ronse@uunet.UU.NET (Christian Ronse) Subject: bibliography requests Summary: s-mail address needed if you want a copy Note to all those who requested me a copy of that bibliography: 1) As this bibliography will be copyrighted, I cannot make it available in electronic form (FTP or anything else).
