Abstract

The present application relates to methods and systems for generating polygon meshes. One example of a method for generating a polygon mesh includes scanning a plurality of lines of an image to determine one or more pixel run lengths of interest, building a collection of rectangles based on the one or more pixel run lengths from the plurality of lines, and simplifying the collection of rectangles by combining rectangles with similar widths and/or heights.
