US Patent:

6335732, Jan 1, 2002

Filed:

May 8, 1998

Appl. No.:

09/074373

Inventors:

Mohammad Salim Shaikh - College Park MD 20740

International Classification:

G06T 1530

US Classification:

345421, 345423

Abstract:

A method for taking advantage of external recongnition to thereby render only those computer generated objects that are from any orientation and viewing angle. Internal components and hidden components are omitted from the rendered image. This method applies only to assembly and sub-assembly models and not to individual components models.

Filed:

Sep 19, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/665569

Inventors:

Mohammad Salim Shaikh - College Park MD, US

International Classification:

G06T017/00

US Classification:

345420, 345441, 345442, 345472

Abstract:

A solid modeler is provided which is specifically tailored for the material removal process associated with milling procedure. The solid modeler permits a part to be designed using only machinable profiles thereby constraining the designer to real world machinable operations. The method utilized by this solid modeler allows design manipulation of the edges and curves of a very general feature profile, thereby representing the milling process with the same degree of flexibility that the actual milling process has, and provides a means to create and store for use in the generation of other parts any combination of 2D and 3D features.
