Abstract
Stuffed toys, aka plushes, are children’s memories in their childhood. These toys are adored by children because of their cute appearance and soft touches. In addition to the shape, the seams on the surface of plush also affect the appearance of plush. Poorly designed plush may result in unnatural seams, leaving scar-like feeling in the first impression. Previous works only focused on solving the developable problem while visual defects caused by boundary trenches remain unsolved. In this paper, we proposed a new segmentation method minimizing these defects by considering structural properties of the given shape. The resulting boundaries are less noticeable to human eyes while the overall segmentation remain quasi-developable so that it can be used for plush fabrication. We evaluate the proposed method on a variety of 3D models with physically fabricated results.
