Abstract

This paper describes an algorithms for performing arbitrary translations and rotations of objects represented by octrees. Given an octree in a standards position and a transformation, the algorithm builds a new tree in the top down fashion, visiting each node in the new tree only once, and constructing only those nodes that appear in the final tree. It works by projecting the transformed space over the original tree, and labeling the new nodes according to the labels of the nodes in the underlying untransformed tree.
