This project is part of this project-seminar-lecture 3D Computer Graphics: Extending the Three.js Framework at the Hasso-Plattner-Institute (HPI). The goal of this project is introducing superquadrics as a new geometry type in three.js and take care of possible compability issues.

Superquadrics are versatile 3D geometric shapes that generalize ellipsoids.

Superquadrics find applications in computer graphics, computer vision, and robotics for modeling and analyzing a variety of 3D objects due to their adaptability in representing different shapes.

Examples for different parametrizations (the two parameters $\epsilon_1$ and $\epsilon_2$ determine the shape of the superquadric):

Their ability to model various shapes with few parameters makes them a natural choice for geometric primitives. Source: https://superquadrics.com/
