| 01:50.13 | dreeves | brlcad starseekerI think I'm going to have to troubleshoot the surface subdivision algorithm in the bvh stuff because it is what was causing the problems with dented sphere, rebuilt sphere, etc.. however I can't just turn it off because it is used for the initial guess. |
| 01:51.29 | dreeves | I mean to say I'm going to have to do that before moving on to the bigger geometries because I'm seeing similar issues that I saw with the less complex geometries |
| 01:52.55 | dreeves | also probably need to go ahead and get the more generalized trimming stuff working because on larger trim curves my approximations may not be sufficient |
| 02:03.05 | starseeker | dreeves: sounds good |
| 02:03.32 | starseeker | the larger examples aren't of serious interest until we can handle the simper cases - they are intended as "stress tests" |
| 02:07.34 | dreeves | yeah starseeker I think we are pretty close to handling the simpler cases ok now except for the distorted sphere fine (but I'm not sure about that one period) I think if physically make those examples bigger the raytracer will start showing the problems again |
| 02:09.20 | dreeves | I think we have to generalize for the simpler cases and make it alot more robust before tackling the more complex examples I was wanting to wait but I think I'm seeing the problem with that approach so I will have to take a step back |
| 02:09.23 | brlcad | gets a nifty response from the openusability folks |
| 02:09.50 | brlcad | starseeker: were you interested in that? (did you see my messages on friday?) |
| 02:10.22 | brlcad | dreeves: hmm, pulling it back to some of the more basic aspects of the problem... that sounds very familiar :-) |
| 02:13.30 | starseeker | brlcad: I did see that, but my thought on it is that we're not quite ready for usability work yet... |
| 02:14.26 | brlcad | there's many places and many ways where usability can be improved |
| 02:14.30 | brlcad | we're not just talking about mged |
| 02:14.34 | starseeker | ah |
| 02:14.38 | brlcad | though even mged could use some basic attention |
| 02:14.44 | brlcad | or archer for that matter |
| 02:14.45 | starseeker | would the others generate interest? |
| 02:14.55 | starseeker | isn't familiar with openusability... googles... |
| 02:15.14 | brlcad | wouldn't it be nice if someone specifically paying attention to usability sorted out exactly how the menu system should be arranged? |
| 02:15.32 | starseeker | yes, it would be |
| 02:15.36 | brlcad | or basic key bindings for that matter |
| 02:15.42 | brlcad | or information panels |
| 02:15.45 | brlcad | or command line options |
| 02:15.45 | starseeker | what are the mentoring requirements? |
| 02:15.57 | dreeves | Well the 2 basic issues right now are 1) the approximation of the trim curve right now it is hardwired for 100 segments. On a smaller curve that means a segment may represent something like 0.03 or less in length but on a larger curve that may represent some like 5 or xxx in length which obviously that gets to be a problem. I just need to get away from the approximation approach altogether. The second issue is the subdividing the surface and surroundi |
| 02:15.57 | dreeves | ng the segment of surface with a bounding box and the current algorithm grows by some small percentage to account for curving near the edges well on smaller geometry that fudging maybe sufficient but on larger geometries that fudging is not near enough |
| 02:16.19 | starseeker | figures key bindings will need to be configurable to Solidworks/Pro-E/Unigraphics to allow work flows to be preserved |
| 02:16.44 | brlcad | sure, that might be one thing -- but what should our defaults be? |
| 02:16.53 | starseeker | nods |
| 02:17.09 | starseeker | yeah, that sounds good - I take it you got a positive response? |
| 02:17.48 | brlcad | I certainly have my notions and background in usability and biases towards tools I've learned, but that's still different from specifically and intently sitting down as a project and sorting out what those defaults should be -- takes time |
| 02:18.55 | brlcad | unknown about whether we can participate this year, but that's not even really the main focus I think -- just getting ourselves aligned to be thinking more about usability and prepared to mentor such projects will be good |
| 02:19.03 | brlcad | so even if we can't participate this year, perhaps next year |
| 02:19.30 | starseeker | sure |
| 02:19.39 | starseeker | what specifically do you need me to do? |
| 02:19.46 | starseeker | scrolls back... |
| 02:19.48 | dreeves | I think once we have generalized those 2 issues we can handle the bigger and more complex geometries |
| 02:19.48 | brlcad | the mentoring requirements are more towards being the experts in our domain (CAD, solid modeling) so that we can have a useful dialog |
| 02:20.03 | starseeker | dreeves: sounds good |
| 02:20.30 | brlcad | as they are students that likely have no background in our area or even necessarily software design for that matter -- they get students that focus specifically on usability |
| 02:20.48 | dreeves | so I'm not really pulling back just going back and generalizing the stuff I have hardwired up to this point |
| 02:21.20 | brlcad | dreeves: it was tounge-in-cheek, not critique :) |
| 02:21.43 | dreeves | Oh you didn't offend me and I definitely took it that way |
| 02:21.56 | brlcad | generalizing what's in place is a form of "going back", and going back is the approach I'd started down on a while back |
| 02:22.18 | starseeker | brlcad: yeah, I'd certainly be willing to work as mentor on a project like that |
| 02:22.58 | brlcad | starseeker: great, I figured you would be |
| 02:23.00 | dreeves | Yeah the main reason for what I wrote is mainly if anyone else wanted to work on this more than anything I just want people to know what needs to be worked |
| 02:23.31 | dreeves | i.e. starseeker |
| 02:23.48 | dreeves | and I know there are a couple of people looking at things |
| 02:23.50 | starseeker | dreeves: I'm going to be attacking from the "need debugging/analysis capabilities" side, which should be orthogonal to the thrust of your work |
| 02:23.53 | dreeves | associated with brep |
| 02:24.05 | dreeves | coole |
| 02:24.07 | dreeves | cool |
| 02:24.49 | brlcad | woot! looks like my rt_mirror() change works... |
| 02:24.51 | brlcad | why does bob have to make it so complicated sometimes :) |
| 02:24.54 | starseeker | once we get to more complex geometries, we're likely to hit test cases where it's really hard to get a minimal case (possibly even problems specifically caused by a case being complex) |
| 02:25.05 | starseeker | brlcad: lol! |
| 02:25.13 | starseeker | has wondered this... |
| 02:25.53 | dreeves | Did that other person ever respond what they were doing with curvature the other day? |
| 02:26.03 | brlcad | seriously, he had the math doing flips because he wanted to specify a point (sure) and a direction (okay) .. and a distance down that vector (um) |
| 02:26.20 | brlcad | and then tracking that distance all the way through to librt to the primitives themselves for a couple of them |
| 02:26.36 | starseeker | winces |
| 02:26.37 | brlcad | I mean really.. just move the point |
| 02:27.06 | dreeves | :) |
| 02:27.19 | brlcad | now the trick will be to rewire all the primitives to actually use a plane_t instead of a point+dir |
| 02:28.45 | dreeves | ok so he wasn't really trouble shooting a perceived problem with opennurbs |
| 02:28.53 | brlcad | which is a nice compact plane equation -- a vector and a distance, 4 values -- but changes things .. probably just derive the point and dir |
| 02:29.09 | starseeker | nods |
| 02:29.32 | starseeker | dreeves: no, Bob is doing libged (prime mover thereof, actually) |
| 02:30.13 | dreeves | ok I'm talking about something else |
| 02:30.46 | starseeker | heh - welcome to irc - multi-threading conversations |
| 02:31.04 | dreeves | yeah I'm learning I'm new to irc |
| 02:32.33 | dreeves | it is basically chatting and I have done plenty of that but usually one on one |
| 02:33.28 | brlcad | dreeves: they (jonored) was working on implementing the curve() callback |
| 02:34.48 | brlcad | he'd noticed that the normal was being filled in during shot(), so norm() perhaps can stay pretty simple (need to verify what others are doing) .. but that still leaves curve() |
| 02:36.03 | brlcad | briefly mentioned on the 17th if you have logs |
| 02:38.23 | starseeker | ~logs |
| 02:38.23 | ibot | All conversations are logged to http://ibot.rikers.org/channel, where "channel" is replaced by the URL-encoded channel name, such as %23freenode for #freenode. Lines starting with spaces are not logged. |
| 02:39.28 | brlcad | really need to get website irc log integration with drupal working so we can search our own content |
| 02:41.03 | brlcad | even a cron job that snatches from ibot and adds to cms would be better |
| 02:56.18 | dreeves | ok the website with the logs is neat |

| 02:58.00 | dreeves | btw shot isn't calculating the normal it is being calculated from what is returned from opennurbs in the intersect function |
| 03:03.49 | brlcad | er, but that happens during shot() right? :) |
| 03:04.09 | dreeves | yeah if you mean it is being called from shot? |
| 03:04.18 | dreeves | which it is |
| 03:05.05 | brlcad | right, that's all that mattered |
| 03:05.11 | dreeves | oh ok |
| 03:05.21 | brlcad | it's filling in the hit_normal |
| 03:05.28 | brlcad | normally shot isn't responsible for doing that |
| 03:05.36 | dreeves | obviously I didn't understand something |
| 03:05.45 | dreeves | ah ok |
| 03:06.41 | dreeves | makes since then |
| 03:06.46 | brlcad | also normal != curvature, don't know if you were thinking that or not |
| 03:07.26 | dreeves | no I know that |
| 03:07.57 | brlcad | k |
| 03:08.12 | dreeves | goes back to look at exactly what is being returned |
| 03:10.52 | brlcad | probably shouldn't be filling in hit_normal the more I think about it |
| 03:11.01 | brlcad | at least, norm() really shouldn't be empty |
| 03:11.21 | brlcad | I think what some of the other primtivies do that have the information calculated early is to stash it into vpriv |
| 03:11.37 | dreeves | actually it is returning the derivative in both s and t and normal is being calculated from that |
| 03:12.04 | brlcad | yeah, then probably shouldn't do that .. just stash the derivs |
| 03:12.12 | brlcad | then norm() can do the final calculation |
| 03:13.25 | dreeves | ok in the next round of clean up I can do that unless the other person is working on that. Don't want to step on what they are doing. |
| 03:16.28 | dreeves | I'm definitely ready to harden what we have now vs keep tweeking/hacking to make work with the different geometries. I think that is what is required to take the next big step. What do you think? |
| 03:18.32 | dreeves | you know since I went back to utah's combination of tolerances I haven't had to touch them again. Of course that is with this test geometry that is all roughly the same overall size |
| 03:23.19 | brlcad | dreeves: yeah, I'd just let them work on that part -- it's not exactly busted as it is |
| 03:23.37 | brlcad | it's much lower-hanging fruit (norm() at least, curve() could be interesting) |
| 03:24.27 | brlcad | if I remember utah's paper, all of their geometry was pretty small :) |
| 03:24.48 | brlcad | elaine mentioned that it wasn't very robust.. :) |

| 03:28.19 | brlcad | of course it was a pretty general comment at the time, but hinted at their specific effort |
| 03:28.41 | dreeves | Yeah it would be good to have the test geometry scaled up |
| 03:29.27 | dreeves | do you know where nurbs_tests.g came from? |
| 03:33.19 | brlcad | yes |
| 03:33.20 | CIA-28 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r34262 10/brlcad/trunk/include/vmath.h: note that unlike much of the rest of vmath.h, the input and output vectors cannot be the same since it's a macro and the values aren't stored/copied for efficiency. |
| 03:33.31 | dreeves | I'm currently raytracing the perfume bottle from the opennurbs example data it is relatively pretty large compared to the test geometry I'm seeing issues but not sure which is the problem. tolerances or the subdivision or maybe even trimming |
| 03:33.58 | brlcad | they were created in rhino |
| 03:34.40 | dreeves | yes |
| 03:34.49 | dreeves | oh the nurbs_test was? |
| 03:34.54 | brlcad | yes |
| 03:35.05 | brlcad | those objects were all directly created in rhino |
| 03:35.11 | dreeves | oh ok |
| 03:35.32 | dreeves | can you get trial versions of rhino? |
| 03:35.48 | dreeves | will have to investigate that |
| 03:35.51 | brlcad | since we actually use rhino's format (3dm) as our serialized object data, it just imports directly |
| 03:37.16 | brlcad | they do have evaluation copies |
| 03:38.02 | dreeves | I may have to grab it create some more test geometry |
| 03:38.03 | brlcad | the only limitation is that they've forever been windows-only |
| 03:38.36 | dreeves | that is fine I have a windows laptop to |
| 03:38.38 | brlcad | that's something we could probably do pretty easily |
| 03:39.02 | brlcad | more exhaustive test geometry |
| 03:39.03 | dreeves | I wouldn't mind if someone else wanted to do that |
| 03:39.34 | brlcad | yeah, that should be pretty simple |
| 03:39.49 | dreeves | Yeah same geometries scaled up and make additional geometries that make use of all the different types of curves and use of the planar surface |
| 03:39.51 | brlcad | I can see if I can get my seat set up tomorrow |
| 03:40.00 | dreeves | awesome |
| 03:40.08 | dreeves | that will save me significant time |
| 03:40.20 | dreeves | since I have no clue how to use rhino |
| 03:40.24 | brlcad | the only problem with the different curve types is that rhino doesn't expose much of that through the gui |
| 03:40.41 | brlcad | they simplify it way down and do things automagically as they see fit |
| 03:41.05 | brlcad | but shouldn't be too hard to try to coerce a few trimming types |
| 03:41.29 | dreeves | yeah I figured as much |
| 03:41.54 | dreeves | really that is probably the way it should be but would be nice if they had an expert mode where you could limit that |
| 03:42.51 | CIA-28 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r34263 10/brlcad/trunk/ (3 files in 3 dirs): |
| 03:42.52 | CIA-28 | BRL-CAD: remove the mirror_pt 'distance' parameter from rt_mirror() as it just |
| 03:42.52 | CIA-28 | BRL-CAD: unnecessarily complicates the interface. point+dir are sufficient. testing |
| 03:42.52 | CIA-28 | BRL-CAD: seems to indicate no change in functionality so hopefully we're 'good to go' |
| 03:43.25 | dreeves | yeah d2 is difficult to get anything useful from it other ability to scale |
| 03:43.46 | CIA-28 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r34264 10/brlcad/trunk/include/vmath.h: vectors, not points |
| 03:44.13 | dreeves | obviously we want in the end to be able to handle that one but I think there probably is a couple more test cases that need to be worked before we tackle that one |
| 03:48.11 | brlcad | thinks the recent effort and successes warrant a posting |
| 03:48.27 | dreeves | ok one more request on the test geometry one object that has some large components with small components attached i.e. with the attached i.e. some like an ellipsoid with blended tubes attached such that the tubes are wider at the bottom and get more narrow as they go up but not a cone |
| 03:50.37 | dreeves | almost like one of those balls that have the little rubber spines attached all over it (except the test geometry can just have maybe less than 10 attached at random places) |
| 03:52.01 | brlcad | one kush ball coming up :) |
