Detailed Description

BasisCurves are a batched curve representation analogous to the classic RIB definition via Basis and Curves statements.

BasisCurves are often used to render dense aggregate geometry like hair or grass.

A 'matrix' and 'vstep' associated with the basis are used to interpolate the vertices of a cubic BasisCurves. (The basis attribute is unused for linear BasisCurves.)

A single prim may have many curves whose count is determined implicitly by the length of the curveVertexCounts vector. Each individual curve is composed of one or more segments. Each segment is defined by four vertices for cubic curves and two vertices for linear curves. See the next section for more information on how to map curve vertex counts to segment counts.

Segment Indexing

Interpolating a curve requires knowing how to decompose it into its individual segments.

The segments of a cubic curve are determined by the vertex count, the wrap (periodicity), and the vstep of the basis. For linear curves, the basis token is ignored and only the vertex count and wrap are needed.

cubic basis vstep
bezier 3
catmullRom 1
bspline 1

The first segment of a cubic (nonperiodic) curve is always defined by its first four points. The vstep is the increment used to determine what vertex indices define the next segment. For a two segment (nonperiodic) bspline basis curve (vstep = 1), the first segment will be defined by interpolating vertices [0, 1, 2, 3] and the second segment will be defined by [1, 2, 3, 4]. For a two segment bezier basis curve (vstep = 3), the first segment will be defined by interpolating vertices [0, 1, 2, 3] and the second segment will be defined by [3, 4, 5, 6]. If the vstep is not one, then you must take special care to make sure that the number of cvs properly divides by your vstep. (The indices described are relative to the initial vertex index for a batched curve.)

For periodic curves, at least one of the curve's initial vertices are repeated to close the curve. For cubic curves, the number of vertices repeated is '4 - vstep'. For linear curves, only one vertex is repeated to close the loop.

Pinned curves are a special case of nonperiodic curves that only affects the behavior of cubic Bspline and Catmull-Rom curves. To evaluate or render pinned curves, a client must effectively add 'phantom points' at the beginning and end of every curve in a batch. These phantom points are injected to ensure that the interpolated curve begins at P[0] and ends at P[n-1].

For a curve with initial point P[0] and last point P[n-1], the phantom points are defined as. P[-1] = 2 * P[0] - P[1] P[n] = 2 * P[n-1] - P[n-2]

Pinned cubic curves will (usually) have to be unpacked into the standard nonperiodic representation before rendering. This unpacking can add some additional overhead. However, using pinned curves reduces the amount of data recorded in a scene and (more importantly) better records the authors' intent for interchange.

Note
The additional phantom points mean that the minimum curve vertex count for cubic bspline and catmullRom curves is 2.

Linear curve segments are defined by two vertices. A two segment linear curve's first segment would be defined by interpolating vertices [0, 1]. The second segment would be defined by vertices [1, 2]. (Again, for a batched curve, indices are relative to the initial vertex index.)

When validating curve topology, each renderable entry in the curveVertexCounts vector must pass this check.

type wrap validitity
linear nonperiodic curveVertexCounts[i] > 2
linear periodic curveVertexCounts[i] > 3
cubic nonperiodic (curveVertexCounts[i] - 4) % vstep == 0
cubic periodic (curveVertexCounts[i]) % vstep == 0
cubic pinned (catmullRom/bspline) (curveVertexCounts[i] - 2) >= 0

Cubic Vertex Interpolation

Linear Vertex Interpolation

Linear interpolation is always used on curves of type linear. 't' with domain [0, 1], the curve is defined by the equation P0 * (1-t) + P1 * t. t at 0 describes the first point and t at 1 describes the end point.

Primvar Interpolation

For cubic curves, primvar data can be either interpolated cubically between vertices or linearly across segments. The corresponding token for cubic interpolation is 'vertex' and for linear interpolation is 'varying'. Per vertex data should be the same size as the number of vertices in your curve. Segment varying data is dependent on the wrap (periodicity) and number of segments in your curve. For linear curves, varying and vertex data would be interpolated the same way. By convention varying is the preferred interpolation because of the association of varying with linear interpolation.

To convert an entry in the curveVertexCounts vector into a segment count for an individual curve, apply these rules. Sum up all the results in order to compute how many total segments all curves have.

The following tables describe the expected segment count for the 'i'th curve in a curve batch as well as the entire batch. Python syntax like '[:]' (to describe all members of an array) and 'len(...)' (to describe the length of an array) are used.

type wrap curve segment count batch segment count
linear nonperiodic curveVertexCounts[i] - 1 sum(curveVertexCounts[:]) - len(curveVertexCounts)
linear periodic curveVertexCounts[i] sum(curveVertexCounts[:])
cubic nonperiodic (curveVertexCounts[i] - 4) / vstep + 1 sum(curveVertexCounts[:] - 4) / vstep + len(curveVertexCounts)
cubic periodic curveVertexCounts[i] / vstep sum(curveVertexCounts[:]) / vstep
cubic pinned (catmullRom/bspline) (curveVertexCounts[i] - 2) + 1 sum(curveVertexCounts[:] - 2) + len(curveVertexCounts)

The following table descrives the expected size of varying (linearly interpolated) data, derived from the segment counts computed above.

wrap curve varying count batch varying count
nonperiodic/pinned segmentCounts[i] + 1 sum(segmentCounts[:]) + len(curveVertexCounts)
periodic segmentCounts[i] sum(segmentCounts[:])

Both curve types additionally define 'constant' interpolation for the entire prim and 'uniform' interpolation as per curve data.

Note
Take care when providing support for linearly interpolated data for cubic curves. Its shape doesn't provide a one to one mapping with either the number of curves (like 'uniform') or the number of vertices (like 'vertex') and so it is often overlooked. This is the only primitive in UsdGeom (as of this writing) where this is true. For meshes, while they use different interpolation methods, 'varying' and 'vertex' are both specified per point. It's common to assume that curves follow a similar pattern and build in structures and language for per primitive, per element, and per point data only to come upon these arrays that don't quite fit into either of those categories. It is also common to conflate 'varying' with being per segment data and use the segmentCount rules table instead of its neighboring varying data table rules. We suspect that this is because for the common case of nonperiodic cubic curves, both the provided segment count and varying data size formula end with '+ 1'. While debugging, users may look at the double '+ 1' as a mistake and try to remove it. We take this time to enumerate these issues because we've fallen into them before and hope that we save others time in their own implementations.

As an example of deriving per curve segment and varying primvar data counts from the wrap, type, basis, and curveVertexCount, the following table is provided.

wrap type basis curveVertexCount curveSegmentCount varyingDataCount
nonperiodic linear N/A [2 3 2 5] [1 2 1 4] [2 3 2 5]
nonperiodic cubic bezier [4 7 10 4 7] [1 2 3 1 2] [2 3 4 2 3]
nonperiodic cubic bspline [5 4 6 7] [2 1 3 4] [3 2 4 5]
periodic cubic bezier [6 9 6] [2 3 2] [2 3 2]
periodic linear N/A [3 7] [3 7] [3 7]

Tubes and Ribbons

The strictest definition of a curve as an infinitely thin wire is not particularly useful for describing production scenes. The additional widths and normals attributes can be used to describe cylindrical tubes and or flat oriented ribbons.

Curves with only widths defined are imaged as tubes with radius 'width / 2'. Curves with both widths and normals are imaged as ribbons oriented in the direction of the interpolated normal vectors.

While not technically UsdGeomPrimvars, widths and normals also have interpolation metadata. It's common for authored widths to have constant, varying, or vertex interpolation (see UsdGeomCurves::GetWidthsInterpolation()). It's common for authored normals to have varying interpolation (see UsdGeomPointBased::GetNormalsInterpolation()).

The file used to generate these curves can be found in extras/usd/examples/usdGeomExamples/basisCurves.usda. It's provided as a reference on how to properly image both tubes and ribbons. The first row of curves are linear; the second are cubic bezier. (We aim in future releases of HdSt to fix the discontinuity seen with broken tangents to better match offline renderers like RenderMan.) The yellow and violet cubic curves represent cubic vertex width interpolation for which there is no equivalent for linear curves.

Note
How did this prim type get its name? This prim is a portmanteau of two different statements in the original RenderMan specification: 'Basis' and 'Curves'.

For any described attribute Fallback Value or Allowed Values below that are text/tokens, the actual token is published and defined in UsdGeomTokens. So to set an attribute to the value "rightHanded", use UsdGeomTokens->rightHanded as the value.
