Constructive solid geometry (CSG; formerly called computational binary solid geometry) is a technique used in solid modeling. Constructive solid geometry allows a modeler to create a complex surface or object by using Boolean operators to combine simpler objects,[1] potentially generating visually complex objects by combining a few primitive ones.[2][3] In 3D computer graphics and CAD, CSG is often used in procedural modeling. CSG can also be performed on polygonal meshes, and may or may not be procedural and/or parametric. CSG can be contrasted with polygon mesh modeling, boundary representation, and box modeling. The simplest solid objects used for the representation are called geometric primitives. Typically they are the objects of simple shape: cuboids, cylinders, prisms, pyramids, spheres, cones.[1] The set of allowable primitives is limited by each software package. Some software packages allow CSG on curved objects while other packages do not. An object is constructed from primi
