The main application of Afront is the generation of high-quality meshes from a variety of surface descriptions, from triangle meshes themselves (remeshing) to implicit surfaces to point set surfaces.Afront is an advancing front triangulation algorithm that can be applied to many different meshing scenarios. It makes use of a guidance field to determine triangle sizing that is adaptive to the curvature of the input surface, but also maintains smooth gradation to prevent poor quality triangles from being created. The prototype implementation can be used to generate meshes from volumes defined on regular and irregular grids (isosurface extraction), from other meshes (remeshing), and from point sets.It can be used to mesh either the entire input surface or just a local region, and can preserve sharp features that are annotated ahead of time.
