    // =============== draw points =============
    vtkSPtrNew( polyData, vtkPolyData );
    vtkSPtrNew( points, vtkPoints );
    vtkSPtrNew( cells, vtkCellArray );
    for( int i = 0; i < samplePts.size(); ++i )

    mapper->SetInputData( polyData );

    vtkSPtrNew( actor, vtkActor );
    actor->SetMapper( mapper );
    actor->GetProperty()->SetPointSize( 2 );

    vtkSPtrNew( renderer, vtkRenderer );
    renderer->AddActor( actor );
    renderer->SetBackground( 0, 0, 0 );

    vtkSPtrNew( renderWindow, vtkRenderWindow );
    renderWindow->AddRenderer( renderer );

    vtkSPtrNew( renderWindowInteractor, vtkRenderWindowInteractor );
    renderWindowInteractor->SetRenderWindow( renderWindow );

    renderWindowInteractor->SetInteractorStyle(style);

    renderer->ResetCamera();
    renderWindow->Render();
    renderWindowInteractor->Start();

    return 0;
}

Let’s create an interpolate spline curve from the sample points.

    // =============== draw spline =====================
    vtkSPtrNew( samplePoints, vtkPoints );
    for( int i = 0; i < samplePts.size(); ++i )
    {
        samplePoints->InsertNextPoint( samplePts[i].point );
    }

    vtkSPtrNew(spline1, vtkParametricSpline);
    spline1->SetPoints(samplePoints);
    double u = 1.0 / 100;
    double dTemp[3] = {0}, outPt[3] = {0};
    vtkSPtrNew( splintPts, vtkPoints );
    for (double x = 0; x < 1; x = x + u)
    {
        dTemp[0] = x;
        spline1->Evaluate(dTemp, outPt, nullptr);
        splintPts->InsertNextPoint( outPt );
    }

    vtkSPtrNew( polyData, vtkPolyData );
    vtkSPtrNew( points, vtkPoints );
    vtkSPtrNew( cells, vtkCellArray );
    for( int i = 0; i < splintPts->GetNumberOfPoints(); ++i )
    {
        points->InsertNextPoint( splintPts->GetPoint( i ) );
        vtkIdType ids[] = { i };
        cells->InsertNextCell( 1, ids );
    }
    polyData->SetPoints( points );
    polyData->SetVerts( cells );
    polyData->Modified();
    // =================================================

Now we want to make the curve smoother. We can take some new sample points from the spline curve and to generate a new interpolation curve.

    // =============== draw spline =====================
    vtkSPtrNew( samplePoints, vtkPoints );
    for( int i = 0; i < samplePts.size(); ++i )
    {
        samplePoints->InsertNextPoint( samplePts[i].point );
    }

    vtkSPtrNew(spline1, vtkParametricSpline);
    spline1->SetPoints(samplePoints);
    double u = 1.0 / 100;
    double dTemp[3] = {0}, outPt[3] = {0};
    vtkSPtrNew( splintPts, vtkPoints );
    int index = 0;
    for (double x = 0; x < 1; x = x + u)
    {
        dTemp[0] = x;
        spline1->Evaluate(dTemp, outPt, nullptr);
        if( index % 10 == 0 )
        {
            splintPts->InsertNextPoint( outPt );
        }
        index++;
    }
    splintPts->InsertNextPoint( outPt );

    vtkSPtrNew(spline2, vtkParametricSpline);
    spline2->SetPoints( splintPts );
    vtkSPtrNew( splintPts2, vtkPoints );
    for( double x = 0; x < 1; x = x + u )
    {
        dTemp[0] = x;
        spline2->Evaluate(dTemp, outPt, nullptr);
        splintPts2->InsertNextPoint( outPt );
    }

    vtkSPtrNew( polyData, vtkPolyData );
    vtkSPtrNew( points, vtkPoints );
    vtkSPtrNew( cells, vtkCellArray );
    for( int i = 0; i < splintPts2->GetNumberOfPoints(); ++i )
    {
        points->InsertNextPoint( splintPts2->GetPoint( i ) );
        vtkIdType ids[] = { i };
        cells->InsertNextCell( 1, ids );
    }
    polyData->SetPoints( points );
    polyData->SetVerts( cells );
    polyData->Modified();
    // =================================================

[…] I found a new way to make interpolation spline curve smoother. Let’s explore it based on the previous post, VTK – Make Interpolation Spline Curve Smoother. […]
