The term mesh is used to describe the surface of a 3D object composed of triangular or polygon faces. A mesh object does not have any actual curvature. Instead, the appearance of curvatures in a 3D image composed of meshes is obtained by increasing the number of surfaces. The most common file format of these 3D images is the STL file [5], which will be discussed in detail in the next chapter.
