Abstract
Feature Recognition systems generally use `Object-Centred' models (eg B-Rep and CSG) to represent components and search for features. The authors present a novel `Viewer-Centred' approach to feature recognition, influenced by their work on Aspect Graphs. The motivation behind this is an attempt to create a more robust system, capable of recognizing a wide range of features. Two advantages of the system over conventional techniques are first that it is able to recognize generic DP-features on objects with a range of non-planar faces and second, it can find assembled features. This paper reports the current state of development of the system. The methodology of the approach is detailed and contrasted with previously published work in this area. Results for a variety of test cases are also given.
