A new mesh reconstruction method, called the shrink-wrapped boundary face (SWBF) algorithm, is proposed for approximating a surface from a set of unorganized 3D points. SWBF overcomes the genus-0 spherical topology restriction of previous shrink-wrapping based mesh generation technique. Furthermore, SWBF is much faster since it requires only local nearest-point-search in the shrinking process. Our experimental results demonstrate that SWBF is very robust and efficient, and it is expected to become a general solution for reconstructing a mesh from an unorganized points cloud.
