Bounding Volume Hierarchy BVH in OpenCASCADE
Abstract. Bounding Volume Hierarchy(BVH) organizes geometric objects in the tree based on spatial relationships. Each node in the tree contains an axis-aligned bounding box of all the objects below it. Bounding volume hierarchies are used in many algorithms to support efficient operations on the sets of geometric objects, such as collision detection, ray-tracing, searching of nearest objects, and view frustum culling. The paper focus on the usage of BVH on TopoDS_Shape, and its application.
Key Words. BVH, Bounding Volume Hierarchy, Collision Detection
1.Introduction
层次包围盒(Bounding Volume Hierarchy, BVH)是一种基于物体的场景管理技术,广泛用于碰撞检测,光线追踪,视锥体物体剔除等场合。对于三维场景的实时渲染来说,BVH是最常用的数据结构。场景以层次树形结构进行组织,包含一个根节点、内部节点、叶子节点。树中的每个节点,包括叶子节点都有一个包围体,可以将其子树的所有几何体包围起来,这就是BVH名字的由来。如下图所示:

本文主要介绍OpenCASCADE中的BVH包及其应用,如碰撞检测。
2.Build BVH
在BVH包中的头文件里面找到BVH的作者:Denis BOGOLEPOV, Danila ULYANOV,在网上搜到他们的一篇论文:Real-Time SAH BVH Construction for Ray Tracing Dynamic Scenes. 因此,可知BVH中是应用SAH(Surface Area Heuristic)策略来构造BVH树的。根据BVH_BinnedBuilder头文件中的注释可知:
//! of bins controls BVH quality in cost of construction time (greater
//! better). For optimal results, use 32 – 48 bins. However, reasonable
//! performance is provided even for 4 – 8 bins (it is only 10-20% lower
//! in comparison with optimal settings). Note that multiple threads can
//! be used only with thread safe BVH primitive sets.
OpenCASCADE中也提供了其他的构造方法,如类BVH_LinearBuilder中使用了Spatial Morton codes方法:
//! Algorithm uses spatial Morton codes to reduce the BVH construction
//! problem to a sorting problem (radix sort — O(N) complexity). This
//! Linear Bounding Volume Hierarchy (LBVH) builder produces BVH trees
//! of lower quality compared to SAH-based BVH builders but it is over
//! an order of magnitude faster (up to 3M triangles per second).
//!
//! For more details see:
//! C. Lauterbach, M. Garland, S. Sengupta, D. Luebke, and D. Manocha.
//! Fast BVH construction on GPUs. Eurographics, 2009.
3.Traversal BVH
由类BVH_TreeBase可知,当得到BVH树后,可以取出节点索引的数组。下面给出将TopoDS_Shape的BVH树显示出来的示例代码:

void testBvh(const std::string& theFileName)
{

TopoDS_Compound aCompound;
TopoDS_Shape aShape;
BRepTools::Read(aShape, theFileName.c_str(), aBuilder);

for (int i = 0; i < aBvh->Length(); i++)
{
const BVH_Vec4i& aNodeData = aBvh->NodeInfoBuffer()[i];
if (aNodeData.x() == 0)
{
// inner node.
const BVH_Vec3d& aP1 = aBvh->MinPoint(aNodeData.y());
const BVH_Vec3d& aP2 = aBvh->MaxPoint(aNodeData.y());

}
else
{

const BVH_Vec3d& aP1 = aBvh->MinPoint(i);
const BVH_Vec3d& aP2 = aBvh->MaxPoint(i);
try
{
BRepPrimAPI_MakeBox aBoxMaker(gp_Pnt(aP1.x(), aP1.y(), aP1.z()),
gp_Pnt(aP2.x(), aP2.y(), aP2.z()));
aBuilder.Add(aCompound, aBoxMaker.Shape());
}
catch (Standard_Failure f)
{
}
}
}
BRepTools::Write(aCompound, \”d:/bvh.brep\”);
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
if (argc > 1)
{
testBvh(argv[1]);
}
return 0;
}
由上述代码可知,当得到节点信息
const BVH_Vec4i& aNodeData = aBvh->NodeInfoBuffer()[i];
后,通过判断aNodeData.x()分量来确定此节点是内部节点还是叶子节点。显示OCC自带的螺旋桨模型的BVH如下图所示:
其中红色线框为内部节点,黄色实体模型是叶子节点。
4.BVH Application
BVH在OpenCASCADE中也有广泛地应用,如开源版本中的模型快速碰撞检测,使用类BRepExtrema_ShapeProximity. 模型选择操作,光线跟踪等算法中都有应用。
5.Conclusion
因为OpenCASCADE中构造BVH时依赖模型的网格三角形,所以BVH算法的应用的结果就依赖于网格化算法的质量了。如两个Topo形状碰撞检测时,网格化的质量越高,结果精度越高。如果用解析算法去对两个Topo形状做碰撞检测,也会涉及到解析算法的精度问题。
BVH结构广泛应用于碰撞检测、光线跟踪等算法中,大大提高程序性能。本文只是抛砖引玉,对BVH感兴趣的童鞋可以参考相关资料及OpenCASCADE中的代码实现,去深入学习应用。
