Abstract
A method, device, and computer-readable storage medium for retrieving a stored triangulation of a polygonal mesh. The method includes: receiving an input polygonal mesh that is a computer representation of a three-dimensional (3D) object; identifying one or more faces of the input polygonal mesh that have more than three edges; retrieving for each face of the one or more faces, integer counts of a number of triangles that are incident to each vertex of the face stored in face-vertex properties of the face, wherein a specific triangulation of the face is represented by the number of triangles that are incident to each vertex of the face; and generating a triangulated polygonal mesh corresponding to the input polygonal mesh by triangulating, for each face of the one or more faces, the face based on the integer counts of the number of triangles that are incident to each vertex of the face.
