Abstract
A compression method includes simplifying a mesh that represents a textured 3D-object by replacing polygons in the mesh with new ones that have broader faces. The method includes identifying adjacent polygons with different textures and adding vertices at the same positions as two vertices in the polygons. This creates two new edges and an intermediate polygon interposed between the two adjacent polygons. The new edges have zero length and the new polygon has zero area.
