Hi

 

Can anyone help me understand use case of API ProSurfaceTessellationGet() ? What is meant by this API?

 

Does this API help to find geometry of part file?

 

Thanks and Regards

Ketan

pretty good explanation of tessellation is here:

https://computergraphics.stackexchange.com/questions/2018/what-is-tessellation-in-computer-graphics

 

ProSurfaceTessellation related API will generate a triangular mesh for a given surface...

a triangular mesh would naturally produce a point cloud and from a point cloud the possibilities are unlimited -robotic vision, image processing, machine learning API's...
