Lecture 8: Mesh Representations and Geometry Processing (29)

In lecture (43:21) the professor mentioned that the new vertex being added on an edge doesn't necessarily have to be in the middle - how would this non-midpoint vertex split the triangles (and keep triangles)? would it create more than 4 triangles (from the original 2)?

See the cutting example on slide 31.

I think it will split in a similar way. For example, you add a vertix in a edge, you can split into two triangles, then you can use the new vertix to do the same operation. The example pn slide 31 is good
