| − | + | ** Partially complete, primitives are fixed at origin, some primitives unimplemented. | |
| − | + | ** Benefit: partial requirement for interactive visualization of implicit CSG geometry in OpenGL. | |

| − | + | ** Benefit: partial requirement for interactive visualization of BREP/NURBS in OpenGL. | |
| − | * | + | * Implement plate mode BREP/NURBS objects. |
| − | + | ** Similar, if not identical, to plate mode BoTs, 'brep' objects need the ability to have a thickness described so you could automatically handle non-solid NURBS and sheet-metal style geometry without requiring surface solidity. | |
| − | + | ** Benefit: allows for import and visualization of BREP/NURBS surfaces that are not solid. | |
| − | Implement | + | * Develop test scripts for comparing conversion of implicit CSG to BREP/NURBS CSG |
| − | * Benefit: partial requirement for interactive visualization of implicit CSG geometry in OpenGL | + | ** Benefit: provides validation and verification via ray tracing. |
| − | * | + | * Document the new BREP/NURBS primitive. |
| − | + | ** Benefit: provides user documentation explaining capabilities, limitations, and benefits. | |
| − | + | * Implement data cache objects. | |
| − | + | ** Create new LIBRT API routines for storing cache data in a v5 container. This would amount to storing binary data into a 'binunif' object marked as hidden with attributes for date/time stamping and MD5 or SHA256 checksumming. | |
| − | + | ** Benefit: faster ray tracing runtime, applicable to other primitives (NMG, BoT). | |
| − | Implement conversion of BREP/NURBS to NMG. | + | * Cache BREP/NURBS prep results to a specified cache file. |
| − | * Benefit: requirement for | + | ** Benefit: faster ray tracing runtime for BREP/NURBS, user requested. |
| − | + | * Improve BREP/NURBS wireframe. | |
| − | + | ** Investigate using knots on subcurves. | |
| − | + | ** Benefit: faster wireframe, more detailed close wireframes. | |
| − | + | * BREP/NURBS source code cleanup. | |
| − | + | ** Consolidate Owens and Reeves approaches to ray intersection. | |
| − | Identify useful concepts implemented in the old BSPLINE/NURBS code that are not present in openNURBS. | + | ** Benefit: improved code maintainability. |
| − | * Benefit: code reuse, potentially very useful functionality. | + | * Implement an rt_heal(rt_db_internal *dbi); routine. |
| − | * | + | ** The routine tightens up trimming curves and edge/vertex pairings so that they align perfectly while still preserving the topological structure. |
| − | + | * Write an report on using NURBS for analysis purposes. | |
| − | + | * Perform analytic comparison of BREP/NURBS and BoT geometry | |
| − | + | * Perform analytic comparison of BREP/NURBS CSG and implicit CSG geometry | |
| − | + | * Implement support for rotation, scaling, and translations. | |
