What is we use triangular pyramids instead of triangles? Wouldn't this lead to the full 3D representation?

- whizzter 1y agoThe 3d analogue of the triangle then I think you're referring to is called a tetrahedron, one classic algorithm for creating 3d surface representations of volume data is called "marching tetrahedrons" (it's a more correct and was at the time a patent free variation of the marching cubes algorithm).
