Basic Examples  (2)

Reconstruct a sphere from random points:

An oriented point sample of a Beethoven sculpture:

3D reconstructed mesh:

Scope  (2)

GradientFittedMesh works on coordinates:

It is equivalent to points without normals:

GradientFittedMesh works on oriented points:

Options  (2)

VertexNormals  (1)

Specify coordinate orientations using VertexNormals:

This is equivalent to passing oriented points:

PerformanceGoal  (1)

Generate a higher-quality mesh:

Emphasize performance, possibly at the cost of quality:

Applications  (1)

Reconstruct a mesh from oriented points in :

The reconstructed mesh:

Basic properties:

Reconstructed meshes are bounded:

Find its area and centroid:

Possible Issues  (1)

GradientFittedMesh only works on 3D points:
