ABSTRACT:
A method edits a 3D model using 2D images. First, a projected range image is generated from a 3D model. The projected range image is edited using a 2D editor. A projected distance and a cliff distance from a plurality of 3D points to a 3D surface of the 3D model are determined using the edited projected range image. The projected distance and the cliff distance of each of the 3D points are combined to determine a distance from each 3D point to the 3D surface so that the distances forming a distance field of the edited 3D model.
