Abstract
This paper presents a recently developed Image Acquisition-
Geometric Modelling system for the construction of geometric
models of natural objects. This construction is achieved in a
two-step procedure. First, the object of interest is digitised, i.e.
points on the surface of the object are computed. Then, based
on the digitised 3-D points, an approximating surface, a
geometric model of the object of interest, is computed.
Coupled with a mesh generation package, the system presented
allows for further processing and analysis of the resulting
model instead of the real object itself.
