Description
28
An implementation of B-splines.
29
30
In this implementation, the end tangents are created automatically
31
by reflection.
32
33
In matrix form, the @e local interpolation on the interval t=[0..1] is
34
described as follows:
35
@verbatim
36
P(t) = 1/6 * [ t^3 t^2 t 1 ] * [ -1 3 -3 1 ] * [ P-1 ]
37
[ 3 -6 3 0 ] [ P0 ]
38
[ -3 0 3 0 ] [ P1 ]
39
[ 1 4 1 0 ] [ P2 ]
40
@endverbatim
41
42
Where P-1 and P2 represent the neighbouring points or the extrapolated
43
end points. Simple reflection is used to automatically create the end
44
points.
45
46
The spline is discretized based on the chord length of the individual
47
segments. In rare cases (sections with very high curvatures), the
48
resulting distribution may be sub-optimal.

A future implementation could also handle closed splines.
