Our sweep generator is a generalization of the basic geometrical extrusion process, allowing an arbitrary 2D cross-section to move along a complex 3D space curve. During this sweep process, the cross-section can be rotated, scaled non-uniformly, and even be morphed into other profile shapes. Sweeps can serve as the back-bone of modeling many intricate geometrical shapes.
