Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) - Computational Binary Solid Geometry

  • formerly called Computational Binary Solid Geometry
  • is a modeling technique that builds 3D objects by combining simpler geometric primitives using boolean operations like union, intersection, and difference
  • this approach allows for the creation of complex shapes by combining basic primitives like cubes, cylinders, and spheres

CSG - Tree

CSG objects can be represented by binary trees, where leaves represent primitives, and nodes represent operations. In this figure, the nodes are labeled ∩ for intersection, ∪ for union, and — for difference
