We introduce a novel offset meshing approach that can robustly handle a 3D surface mesh with an arbitrary geometry and topology configurations, while nicely capturing the sharp features on the original input for both inward and outward offsets. Compared to the existing approaches focusing on constant-radius offset, to the best of our knowledge, we propose the first-ever solution for mitered offset that can well preserve sharp features. Our method is designed based on several core principals: 1) explicitly generating the offset vertices and triangles with feature-capturing energy and constraints; 2) prioritizing the generation of the offset geometry before establishing its connectivity, 3) employing exact algorithms in critical pipeline steps for robustness, balancing the use of floating-point computations for efficiency, 4) applying various conservative speed up strategies including early reject non-contributing computations to the final output. Our approach further uniquely supports variable offset distances on input surface elements, offering a wider range practical applications compared to conventional methods. We have evaluated our method on a subset of Thinkgi10K, containing models with diverse topological and geometric complexities created by practitioners in various fields. Our results demonstrate the superiority of our approach over current state-of-the-art methods in terms of element count, feature preservation, and non-uniform offset distances of the resulting offset mesh surfaces, marking a significant advancement in the field. |
