Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for gesture-based editing of three-dimensional (3D) models of real targets, for example, for use in planning hair transplantation procedures. According to some embodiments of the methodology disclosed, a 3D control points on an initial default model are matched automatically with the drawing of an outline of a target feature that a user wishes to define and deformed appropriately to quickly and accurately modify and update the initial default model into a resulting fitting model of the real target.
