What is Picture to People ?

"Picture to People" (P2P) is a huge Computer Graphics project. It was started to create new softwares able to make 2D drawing, 3D rendering, vexel drawing, text effects, photo effects, image filtering and other complex Computer Graphics operations. It has been made from scratch, including its low level Computer Graphics libraries like Maccala. Nowadays, most final features produced for this project are released as free online tools available from its official website. This blog talks about Computer Graphics, mainly concerning Picture to People development.

Simplifying objects


The picture shows only one polygon. It has 14 sides and 34 self-intersection points. I'm developing an algorithm to process this kind of very complex and degenerated object and transform it in a group of simpler shapes.

The big point is: the group of calculated objects need to keep the topological properties of the original one.

When I have this kind of tool, I can make indirectly all set operations over self-intersection objects.

In the screenshot, different colors illustrate a method for degeneration reduction been tested.

Hard work these days.
