Smart Hybrid

3DCoat new technology – Smart Hybrid

• It is an integration of different modeling methods
• Inside Smart Hybrid is a set of patches.
• There are many ways to create this model (patches)
– from a set of curves
– from a Low Poly mesh->Catmull-Clark Smoothing
– pre-created primitives Algorithm
– generate with tools (Swept, Conic)
– from selected surfaces

• It is incredibly flexible, with many graphs for editing
• It is smart, you can see if the joints are hard or smooth
• After creating the model, you can easily change the topology (InSet, Extrude, Subdivide)
• The model shows surfaces that can be changed by pulling the poles or parametric lines

Tools

Select: Selection of object or Point/Edges.
Create Smart Hybrid: The Smart Hybrid can to create from visible mesh.
Smart Hybrid Tool: The tool allow to edit mesh of Smart Hybrid and to create new mesh.
Smart Hybrid Extrude: The tool allow to extrude of selected faces of Smart Hybrid.
Smart Hybrid Transform: The tool allow to Transform of selected faces/edges/points of Smart Hybrid.
Smart Hybrid Offset: The tool allow to Offset of selected rectangle of faces of Smart Hybrid.
Smart Hybrid Alignment: The tool allow to Alignment the Boundary of selected rectangle of faces of Smart Hybrid.
Smart Hybrid SubDivide: The tool allow to SubDivide of faces of Smart Hybrid.

Smart Hybrid allows you to create
