Grouping and traversing processes are developed to find connectivity between dexels along every two adjacent rays. After traveling through all the rays on one slice, sub-boundaries are connected into full boundaries which are desired contours. The complexity of the new method has been investigated and determined as O(n). We also demonstrate the ability of the described method for viewing a sculpted model from different directions.en-USsimulationsimülasyonA new contour reconstruction approach from dexel data in virtual sculptingArticle2580533000132580533000132-s2.0-522490939872-s2.0-52249093987
