Meschers: New Mesh Representation for Impossible Objects

Researchers have introduced Meschers, a novel mesh representation designed to accurately depict impossible objects, such as those found in M.C. Escher's artwork. Unlike previous methods that involved cutting or bending, Meschers provides a theoretical foundation in discrete exterior calculus, enabling robust geometry processing. This new representation supports various downstream graphics applications, including relighting and distance computation, and allows for the inverse rendering of these paradoxical constructions. AI

    Meschers: Geometry Processing of Impossible Objects

    Impossible objects, geometric constructions that humans can perceive but that cannot exist in real life, have been a topic of intrigue in visual arts, perception, and graphics, yet no satisfying computer representation of such objects exists. Previous work embeds impossible objec…
