Question

I have an object made of points, lets say its point cloud, i want to render object from those points, i want object to look like those points were wrapped in a sheet of paper. I want to animate it, so first thing that came on my mind was marching cubes, but my object will not be a ball or cube, it will morph, is there any simpler approach than marching cubes?

Answer 1

Depending on what you mean by “wrapped” a 3D convex hull may produce the effect that you want.

Animate your vertices however you want and re-run the hull algorithm each time.
