DESCRIPTION: The model produces a 3D leaf structure based on a single image as texture.
HOW IT WORKS: The texture will be subdivided in an initial step into a specified number of parts. Each of these parts will be applied on a single parallelogram to model the shape. The leaf module offers four parameters:
– len – total length of the leaf
– len – total length of the leaf
– numberOfSequences
– finalBendingAngle
– foldingAngle
If the folding angle equals to zero, the parts will not divide in the middle. The leaf is a sequence of parallelograms.
If the folding angle equals to zero, the parts will not divide in the middle. The leaf is a sequence of parallelograms.
NOTE: The initial step of dividing the texture will need some time.
