Abstract
Interpolating subdivision schemes let users adjust coordinates of a 3D object´s initial vertices, generate new vertices, and replace the original mesh with more and smaller polygons to make the object´s surface smoother. Two new schemes for triangular meshes extend and combine existing schemes to improve the process and its results.
