Abstract
Style sketches are an essential tool for the expression and the definition of the shape of industrial products. We present a novel wavelet approach for sketch segmentation and editing expressly addressed to the designer needs. Starting from a 2D curve drawn by a user with a graphics tablet, our algorithm converts it in a B-spline representation, detects the style features, allows interactive smoothing and continuous local and global editing. The novelty compared to the existing literature is the combination of: (i) unified wavelet approach to segmentation, smoothing and editing, (ii) support for endpoint C0 and C1 continuity constraints and (iii) implementation with an interactive pen-tablet interface. Our approach requires low memory footprints with time complexity linear in the number of control points. We validated the algorithm with synthetic and practical tests.
