Abstract

A method, device, and computer-readable storage medium for simplifying a mesh including bevels. The method includes: receiving a polygonal mesh representing a three-dimensional (3D) object; identifying a set of edges in the polygonal mesh as bevel edges; performing a mesh simplification operation on the polygonal mesh to generate a simplified mesh, wherein the mesh simplification operation removes at least one edge that includes a vertex that is of a bevel edge, and wherein two vertices in the polygonal mesh are collapsed to a collapse vertex in the simplified mesh; and updating stored normals of the collapse vertex based on copying stored normals of the two vertices removed from the polygonal mesh to the collapse vertex.
