  • Rendering algorithm used for implicit functions

    For constructing the quadtree, I'd refer you to https://github.com/jared-hughes/isosurfaces (specifically build_tree and should_descend_deep_cell) which takes a similar approach as Desmos: descend to a certain depth, say 5 (to get a 32×32 grid), then descend only quads that cross the isoline (with a few more heuristics).
  • How does desmos render implicit plots?
    1 project | /r/desmos | 2 Nov 2021
    Desmos uses the same approach as my isosurfaces Python package, based on J. Manson and S. Schaefer, "Isosurfaces Over Simplicial Partitions of Multiresolution Grids."

    All that said, there is a GitHub project that comes up in a rudimentary search, using Python to convert the file to separate STLs for each ‘layer’. This isn’t an endorsement, just acknowledging it exists. https://github.com/dave3d/dicom2stl
