Abstract
A method for inserting features into a three-dimensional object is disclosed, wherein features correspond to original features of the three-dimensional object. The inserting method comprises determining a reference shape using the original features; determining a set of vertices on the three-dimensional original object at the intersection between the reference shape and the three-dimensional object; modifying the local neighborhood of the set of vertices so that their local neighborhood is close to a set of target shapes. A method for obtaining features from a three-dimensional object is further disclosed. The method comprises obtaining anchor vertices whose local neighborhood is close to a set of target shapes; fitting a reference shape onto the anchor vertices; and obtaining the features using the fitted reference shape. A 3D object carrying anchor vertices and devices for implementing the disclosed methods are further disclosed.
