Abstract
Embodiments provide for sculpt transfer. Embodiments include identifying a source polygon of a source mesh that corresponds to a target polygon of a target mesh. Embodiments include determining a first matrix defining a first rotation that aligns a target rest state of the target polygon to a source rest state of the source polygon, determining a second matrix defining a linear transformation that aligns the source rest state to a source pose of the source polygon, wherein the linear transformation comprises rotating and stretching, determining a third matrix defining a second rotation that aligns the source pose to the target rest state, and determining a fourth matrix defining a third rotation that aligns the source rest state to the source pose. Embodiments include determining a target pose of the target polygon based on the target rest state, the first matrix, the second matrix, the third matrix, and the fourth matrix.
