Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to generating enhanced curves that are aesthetically pleasing. To create enhanced a curve that is aesthetically pleasing, a curve enhancement system uses non-uniformly scaled cubic variation of curvature (CVC) curves. For example, the curve enhancement system non-uniformly scales a curve in a spline. Based on the scaling, the curve enhancement system can generate CVC curves having the desired end point constraints. Then, using the end point constraints, the curve enhancement system can inversely downscale the non-uniform scaled curve while maintaining the end point constraints from the CVC curves to achieve an enhanced curve in the spline.
