I think somewhere in the literature there is an algorithm that, given 2 points on a triangle mesh, finds the triangle strip through which the geodesic passes, but I cannot find it anywhere.

  • $\begingroup$ Not quite, that apper computes a geodesic through edge flips. I am looking for the set of triangles in teh original mesh through which the geodesic passes. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I believe you can compute the geodesic using the above and then check through which triangles it passes in the original mesh. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ That would be a lot of computations : p especially when you take into account that their method assumes you already have a triangle strip connecting the endpoints. $\endgroup$
