Abstract
An illustrative 3D modeling system generates a first voxelized representation of an object with respect to a voxel space and a second voxelized representation of the object with respect to the voxel space. Based on a first normal of a first voxel included in the first voxelized representation and a second normal of a second voxel included in the second voxelized representation, the 3D modeling system identifies a mergeable intersection between the first and second voxels. Based on the first and second voxelized representations, the 3D modeling system generates a merged voxelized representation of the object with respect to the voxel space. The merged voxelized representation includes a single merged voxel generated, based on the identified mergeable intersection, to represent both the first and second voxels. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
