Re: Tool idea for matching complex curves

I did try the algorithm on soemthing that's closer to a flat surface and it
seems to do better.  I also found the paper that I referenced so the
coefficients are theoretically OKish now.

The facet count goes up by a factor of 4 with every generation, so there's
a limit to how much OPENscad can handle.

Interesting but I think it isn't quite right. It seems to generate a
surface texture, possibly where each subdivision meets the next one.

Not sure if this will show up in a thread or not... but I did a proof
of concept level interpolating subdivision.  I'll try sending it as an
attachment and see what happens.
