Title: Innovations of Rodney D Jacobson

Introduction

Rodney D Jacobson is an accomplished inventor based in Lebanon, NH (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of volumetric data representation through his innovative patent. His work focuses on generating both hollow and non-hollow solid representations of objects, which has applications in various industries.

Latest Patents

Rodney D Jacobson holds a patent for a "Method and apparatus for generating hollow and non-hollow solid." This invention is directed toward a method and apparatus for generating solid representations of an object represented in terms of volumetric data. The volumetric data represents the object in terms of a plurality of voxels, each voxel having a plurality of voxel faces that interconnect to enclose a voxel volume that represents a portion of the object volume or a portion of the volume of a background substance. A surface representation is generated that represents the object with a plurality of surface voxel faces defining a surface that encloses the voxels whose volumes represent the object volume. An array of control points is formed from the surface representation, each control point corresponding to a surface voxel face. A NURB based solid representation of the object is generated from the array of control points. The NURB based solid representation can be used to drive a CAD/CAM system to generate a replica of the object or can be used for various other purposes.
