Abstract
A method for tracking a surface representation includes providing an initial mesh representing a surface, the initial mesh comprising a plurality of mesh faces. A grid is constructed, the grid having a plurality of grid edges, whereby each grid edge is connected between two grid nodes, and each grid node has a predefined value associated therewith. The grid overlaps the initial mesh, such that at least one mesh face intersects at least one grid edge. A new value for a grid node connected to the intersected grid edge is computed based upon its intersection by the mesh face, and the initial mesh is modified based upon the new value of the grid node to produce a modified mesh, the modified mesh providing an updated representation of the surface.
