Digital geometry processing

Digital geometry processing involves manipulating and analyzing digital representations of shapes and surfaces, such as 3D models or images, to enhance, modify, or extract meaningful information. It is used in applications like computer graphics, 3D modeling, animation, and virtual reality. Techniques include smoothing surfaces, simplifying complex models, or detecting edges and features. The goal is to improve visual quality, accuracy, or usability of digital geometric data, enabling realistic rendering, efficient storage, and precise analysis. Essentially, it transforms raw digital shape data into useful, optimized forms for various technological and creative purposes.
