System Features
Buildable
Three sets of 1:8 physical prototypes verified geometric adaptability and constructability.
Robustness
The algorithm self-optimizes, avoiding the self-intersections common in traditional offsetcrvonsrf.
Continuity
Brick spacing can be constrained, extreme curvature areas are automatically avoided, and additional bricks can be inserted in extreme regions.
Any Surface
Surfaces determine bricks, rather than bricks determining surfaces.
Any Size and Spacing
Each row of bricks can stably vary in size and spacing.
Any Orientation
Brick alignment can be bound to any defined orientation, no longer limited to horizontal layout.
Typical Input/Output
| Input | Description |
|---|---|
| Target Surface | Supports complex freeform surfaces |
| Key Guiding Curve | Defines initial orientation and traverses complex geometry |
| Parameter List [L, W, H, ..., Joint] | Controls brick length, width, height, mortar joint and etc. |
