Patent Abstract

The method involves supplying polygon area networks with amount of vertex for representing an object. The polygon area networks are divided according to a classification procedure e.g. butterfly-classification procedure. A normal amount of vertex is determined, where normal vertex is assigned to the amount of vertex according to the classification procedure. The divided polygon area networks are rendered with a shaded value for receiving image data in a display device, where the normal vertex is provided as calculated dataset. The classification procedure is selected from loop-classification procedure, butterfly-classification procedure, Clark algorithm classification procedure, dynamic-classification procedure and Doo-Sabin-classification procedure. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a computer program-product with program code for performing a method for generating image data (2) a computer program stored in a data storage medium for performing a method for generating image data.
