Abstract:
A method for projecting a 3D surface geometry onto a planar projection comprises: obtaining a 3D geometry of a chamber surface using an algorithm that generates angles and distances between points on the chamber surface that represent mapping information; applying a cutting curve to at least two points on the chamber surface; and at least partially unfolding at least a portion of the chamber surface along the cutting curve to form a planar projection that optimally preserves the angles and distances between points on the chamber surface.

Claim (Index 34):
A method of unfolding a 3D surface geometry of a chamber, the method comprising:\n obtaining a 3D surface geometry of the chamber; identifying a first surface section on the 3D surface geometry having a first feature of the chamber; selecting first and second points on the 3D surface geometry to form a cutting curve; and at least partially unfolding the 3D surface geometry at the cutting curve to render an unfolded 3D surface representation of the chamber; wherein the first and second points are selected to facilitate representation of the first feature in the unfolded 3D surface representation; displaying the unfolded 3D surface representation on a display unit; and wherein the first and second points are positioned on the 3D surface representation to minimize distortion of the first feature after unfolding and the cutting curve is positioned away from the first surface section.
