technology overview

Our company goal at T-Splines, Inc. is to establish our patented T-Splines technology as an industry standard in CAD and animation. We are also encouraging T-Spline research in universities. T-Splines solves what twenty years ago was called the "Holy Grail" of computer-aided geometric design (the local refinement of surfaces), and we believe that the potential of this surface type to solve significant geometry problems is just beginning to be tapped. We would like to encourage researchers, students, and others interested in this field to use our forums and academic papers to share their ideas on 3d modeling surfaces.

Funded by the national science foundation

T-Splines research is being assisted by federal funding. We were fortunate to receive a National Science Foundation SBIR grant to create a surface intersector algorithm based on T-Splines. We discovered a revolutionary new algorithm, the details of which will be posted when it becomes patent-pending.
